Grandma's Texas Lone Star - 8 point Stars made of prints from what looks like men's shirts, also large unpieced rectangles of med. blue and orange in between the stars.
Grandmas Scrappy 9-block - A scrappy 9 block quilt, made up of 2-inch square blocks. Belonged to my grandmother/ my mother/then me nothing else is known as to who actually made and quilted it.
American Beauty - I love patriotic decor, and this hangs in my living room almost year-round. Combination of paper-piecing and traditional piecing. And, yes, curves can make you crazy!
Arabella - Arabella is a fabric collection by Pat Sloan. Her pattern is a freebie on the P&B Textiles website. I love red and yellow, and this fabric was a pleasure to work with.
Written in Thread - Embroidery was the first craft I learned as a child, and I still love it. The hand embroidery was done while spending time with friends during our Tuesday morning sewing sessions. This was a fun little quilt to make.
Reflections - I was amazed at how quickly and easily this went together. It was fun to draft out the design and watch it come together in color. I wanted to imitate how real kaleidoscopes look when peering through the tube.
Making Music - This quilt was designed for the music room at our church. My husband and I are both quilters and musicians, and we wanted to add a touch of color to a very neutral room. This is our first original design, and it was created on the computer. All fabrics are Hoffman Batiks.
