Montana Tigers - From photos of my flowerbeds, I used three of Fallert's gradations, trapunto, feeling free motion quilting. A quilt is complete once it is shared.
The Hues of Amber - I love amber, exploring the variations from the deep burgundy/brown to the butterscotch. I chose Fallert's gradation fabrics to showcase the shades I envisioned. As I was working on my design it seemed to spin on the wall.
Batman - I purchased this pattern off craftsy.com. The original pattern only had one border so I decided to add the outside border with the bat signal on it. This quilt was made for my son Ryan for his birthday.
Tree of Life - Tree of Life was created using HSTs from the SOTTTs exchange. It all started with Edyta Sitar's first show on TQS. 160 quilters from around the world participated in this exchange. The quilt's roots are from the exchange, where a quilt (tree) grew. I quilted little fairies and magical creatures into the quilt to show how we all participated in the growth of this tree quilt. There are about 700 HSTs on it.
Annabeth's Quilt - I made this for my granddaughter, Annabeth. This is the 5th red and white quilt that I have made for a grandchild. My daughter has always loved red and white quilts and when it came time for baby quilts, she wanted red and white.
Garden Star - Designed and entered in Quilt Alliance "20" Contest. Fused Star with fabric of my flower photographs. Bead Embellished, Beaded fringe at bottom. Will go to auction December 2013.
In the Land of Oz - It is a landscape quilt with my dog Ozzy over looking a lake... It was inspired one day when I took him down to our lake close to our home and he was having a good time near the water..It was a peaceful ,beautiful day in which I tried to capture in the quilt..
Handprints - This quilt was made as a retirement gift for a kindergarten teacher. Her class printer their handprints onto stabilized fabrics and were combined into the quilt.
The Jewel in the Lotus - I started this quilt in 2011 shortly after attending the Ricky Tim's Super Seminar on Cape Cod (I was the local event coordinator). It took me 2 1/2 years to complete. It was a gift to my daughter and her husband for their 12th anniversary.
Gyleen's Mystery Bed Runner - Polygon II Mystery quilt designed by Gyleen of ColourfulStitches.com. Mystery clues were sent via email to everyone who had signed up.
Sitting Pretty - Pelican body was made by fusing white fabric that was cut out to denote feathers over black fabric and then sewing around each feather. Head and neck were also plain white fabric. I then used Derwent Inktense pencils to provide color to head, neck and body. Background is hand dyed Ricky Tims fabric.
Alef-Bet - From the moment I began quilting in 2006 I loved appliqué and I began working on this Hebrew sampler. I'm donating to the Jewish school where my sister is a teacher, the name of the letters are embroidered in white under each block, so the kids can practice learning from a distance, and then check their work up close.
From This Moment-A Wedding Quilt - Made for a friend for thier wedding coming up on July 13/13.
