First Quilt over a wedding gift quilt - Ithe quilt was hand made by memere but she used material that soon began to fall apart - so I made a quilt and used the original quilt as batting. My quilt was simple just squares and a simple pattern. I always quilt both sides.

Family history - I started this quilt in 1975 and finished it and gave it to my daughter in 2006 The quilt was made using pieces of leftover fabric from clothes made for myself in high school, and sewing for the family. I used to make all the kids and some of the adult clothes. When I was near finished wach time the quilt grew bigger. Then my daughter wanted a king size and gave me clothing from her husband and children and some material from quilts she made. This quilt is a tresure of memories

Snoopy - I needed something for the kids beds so I took sheets and quilted them long before I knew what a real quilt was. Quilts were for warmth. The kids loved their quilts so much esp Patty she used it in her school play in high school and still has it and loves it.

Typical Boy - In the center of the front quilt I used a picture of Pepere on his tractor surrounded by sqares of other vehicles. On the back was a picture of Deven in his spider man custom with batman and spiderman squares. The label was 3 ducks (nana's favorite) made with love Around the edge I used Deven as a decorating stitch

Marianna's Blocks - Name of fabric with dots is "Oaxaca Dots". Baby's father is from Oaxaca Mexico. Other fabrics in quilt are from my stash. Baby's mother is a good friend and former co-worker.

Floating Pinwheels

Punkin Patch - This was the project for Alex Anderson's 2009 Quilt Retreat in Livermore, CA. Most people went with a Christmas theme but I decided to go the Fall route. And I found a fat quarter set (Gobble Gobble by Moda) that I just loved.

1st Sampler - This is my first quilt carried out in my evening class at the local college. It was great fun, but i really had a problem with choosing colours.

North Berwick Witches - My daughter was just finishing her Masters degree on the North Berwick Witch Hunts. I purchased this kit and adapt it by adding another border with the names of the accused.

Mums Hug - This is a standard hourglass pattern and was the first full size quilt I made.

Coral Seas - I believed I was making this quilt pattern up because I cut my own templates out of cardboard etc and then when I completed it I saw the pattern everywhere. I suppose it is a common layout.

Winter Scene - Just after I had started to learn patchwork and quilting I saw this book by Nancy Zieman and Natalie Sewell called Landscape Quilts and got thoroughly hooked on it.

Cave Paintings - I have a great love of archaeology and have many books on the subject. This inspired me to make my little wall hanging.

Lost in Convergence - While making this quilt I lost one section of it, but carried on and called it "Lost in Convergence"

Shar's baby quilt - I put the two quilt blocks together to try to get some movement in the design. I did the outside green/white plaid border on the bias which was a new thing for me, after lots of starch it worked quite well.

Mini Trip Around the World - As a beginning quilter in 1997 I wanted to make a miniature quilt. After purchaseing Terrie's book in 2010, I have finally made one.

Miracle Grow - Beading, Applique, Stitching, painted Misty Fuse and painted Wonder Under for the background.
