Dolphins over the rainbow - I bought the Moonglow kits as a blokc-of-the-month,and waited years until I had the skills to make the quilt top. Surprise! Some of the kits were short a whole lot of fabric, and some of them did not even match! So, I used the fabrics for this alternate rainbow for my son and his wife. It is quilted with leaping dolphins.
Pumpkin Swap - This is a lap quilt with blocks sent to me by fellow members of HGTV Quilting and Needlework Board. My nine blocks went to them also. I decided they would make a great lap quilt and so joined them and added the piano key border and solid borders, quilting loosely around the pumpkins, randomly on the keys and making leaves on the solid borders.
Sycamore Bark Baskets - I made Sycamore Bark Baskets for the 2012 New Quilts from an Old Favorite Contest. The design is completely original. AQS will be publishing a book," New Quilts from an Old Favorite: Baskets", due out April 1 that will give information on the 18 finalists and their quilts.
Cheryl Phillips Exploration - This is the third quilt that I made from the same Cheryl Phillips pattern, this one more traditional fabric than she uses.
Baseball New Wave - New Wave quilt pattern published originally as a free pattern on OhFransson.com. Made for a nephew's high school graduation. Fabrics all have a baseball motif.
Batik BOM with Spinning set - Half Square triangle setting blocks transform the background into pinwheels. This is the first quilt entirely quilted on my new Sweet-16 machine. I even designed the feathers worked into the backgrounds.
butterfllies and flowers - Erika loves Butterflies and flowers. She is changing the colors in her room from completely pink to purple with a touch of pink. I saw several quilts at Pottery Barn for Kids and adapted this one to be close to them. She says it is perfect. It was lots of fun to make. I had to freehand draw the butterfly to applique on and used my flower die from accuquilt. I also used the strip cutters to make things easier. Quite an easy quilt to get done right before Christmas with all the rush.
