Stack & Whack Argyle - Tony teaches at a school whose colors are green and gold and the mascot is the lion.

Round Robin - We each made a center medallion and passed the quilt around the group for additions.

Chevron - I saw this quilt at the Stanley Idaho quilt show in these colors and just had to make one like it for myself.

untitled - A Christmas Goose was published in Minature Quilts magazine, November issue, page 28, by Kathleen Rindal Brooks. I wanted to do some sewing one afternoon and used some 4 inch squares from a fabric club to play around with the color. Then I used the left over scraps for a sew-and-flip random design on a denim-carry all bag.

Jen & Steve's wedding quilt - My daughter Jen is marrying Steve on January 12, 2008, his mother and I made the blocks, our family and friends signed them and I put it all together.

Kissing Fish - This was me learning a new technique and having enough samples to make a lap quilt.

French Bouquet Quilt - My daughter's grandmother made this quilt from Nancy Page Quilt Club by Florence La Ganke patterns published in the Times-Picayune newspaper in 1934. She researched the newspaper files, supplied me with the floral bouquet patterns and bought reproduction fabric for me to make the quilt. The designs were machine appliqued.

Christmas Stockings - This hangs on my fireplace during the Christmas season. I made a sock for each member of my family --3 kids and spouses, plus 6 grandchildren. That is 13 large socks...(One for me). The names are embroidered on the back of the quilt to keep the surface a little cleaner. The two tiny socks represent those that have passed away.

Sailboats in the Bay - Watercolor type wall hanging depicting sailboats in a bay. I enjoyed the creativeness of trying to place the fabric squares into a recognizeable picture. I studied a wide range of sailboat/bay pictures before trying to create my version.

Stratoshpere - I have been obsessed with Ricky Tims Convergence Book. How easy and so much fun to stitch an unknown... as far as finshed product is concerned. I also reviewed the Video "Grand Finale" many times to get a handle on quilting with the flame stitch.

Cowboy Quilt - My daughter bought the cowboy fabric and asked me to create a quilt for grandson Aidan. I improvised piecing so that the printed design setting was not lost in cutting. The satin pillow on the bed was also an original creation that uses a machine embroidered Indian design (Pack 11743)that was purchased from Oaklahoma Embroidery Supply & Design.

Three Sisters - I challenged myself to create a quilt using squares of fabric of predominately blue color or blue in the pattern. At the base of the 3 mountains is a stream bed outlined with sashiko stitching. Indispersed along the mountain tops are pockets of "snow". The quilt is Japanese inspired. There is a good bit of Japanese fabric in the quilt.
