From Sun Rise to Sun Set - I decided to learn to make circle blocks with scraps and ended up with enough for this quilt.

The Airport Floor - On our way to Italy, we had a layover in the Philadelphia airport. The floor provided inspiration for this quilt. I had planned to make it with 9 blocks, but only had 10 days to complete it for a color class.

All that Glitters - This quilt appeared on Simply Quilts, and Alex stitched a few quilting stitches when she demonstrated the proper left handed quilting technique! I promise Alex, I WILL finish it!

The Round Quilt - I fell in love with the pattern when I saw it in GAQ and knew it was one I had to make. My daughter picked out the fabrics. Since several have metalic gold highlights, I used metallic thread to quilt it.

Think Pink - My niece's favorite color is pink, lots of it! This quilt was made for her high school graduation, May 2006. It was exhibited at the State Capitol Building in the Co Quilting Council's 2007 Capitol Quilt Show.

Alpine Star - This is my millennial quilt. I bought the fabric on January 2, 1990 and finished it December 31, 2001. It got put away for literally years at a time when I didn't feel like working on it. My daughter finally shamed me into finishing it!

Birds & Bee Wedding Quilt - I had just won some fabrics from a block challenge and saw the quilt in Fabric Trends Magazine that would become a wedding gift. I drew a cursive "D" and intertwined it into the medalion center then embroidered the couple's names in a block towards the bottom. I used a 4-color swatch from Lowe's to coordinate the colors and it all came together beautifully!

Oh, Canada! - My secretary is very proud of being born in Canada so this was the ideal small project for her for Christmas.

Falling Memories - This 9" X 12" quilt was made in June, 2007, after Alex and Ricky talked about helping Alzheimer's Research. I made it in honor of my friend's Mother, JoMama, who is 94. The petals falling and on the ground are her lost memories. The petals on the flowers are embroidered with words representing her present memories. She has lost almost all her memories, but still plays the piano every day.

Blood Drives at Sul Ross - These are some of the T-shirts I received for donating blood while serving as a blood drive coordinator for 20 years at the university where I work.

Morning Celebration - This was a wedding gift for a former student who means a great deal to me.

Fiesta Star - Made completely from my Benartex Fossil Fern Collection.

1930's Medallion Scrap Quilt - Made from a collection of 30's reproduction fabrics collected at the 2003 Houston International Quilt Festival. These were "left overs" from Some Where in Time quilt and I still have a nice collection! Custom quilted on my longarm.

Purple Passion Unleashed - I am passionate about purple. This pattern reminded me of whirly gigs blowing freely in the wind. I wanted a large open area to practice my longarm feather techniques

Here We Go Round In Circles - A great fat quarter pattern, used 20 FQ's with Elisa's 7" & 3.5" templates. Custom quilted with beautiful 'spineless" feathers in bright orange thread.

Tenacious Timbers - Created entirely from my own hand dyed fabrics, auctioned at a school fund raiser and sold for $600.00. Also won a blue ribbon at my local quilt show.

In God's Hands Too - I saw this quilt in the magazine and had to make it. In fact, I made it twice! It contains over 1700 pieces. The first one I made was auctioned in a school fund raiser, the second hangs in my home.
