Made this quilt for myself because I love sheep and how they symbolize us always going astray and needing to be sought and brought back in line by our Shepherd

I made this quilt using plums and greens and was working on my FMQ skills. I didn’t plan to give it away but ended up giving it to a friend who admired it

Triple Four Patch a Lynn Roddy Brown pattern

I still had more Civil War/Kansas Troubles fabrics and my Uncle needed a throw. This used one of my favorite blocks from the Trail Mix pattern to create an interesting grid. I did end up having to purchase more of the blue to finish the border. It is quilted with a meander. Because of the Sew-cial Distancing I had to mail it to him.

Trail Mix

Occasionally I dig through my fabrics and "retire" pieces that won't go together or are too small. This becomes my stash bin to create lap sized quilts that I use for practice on different quilting designs for a big project. When I get a stack of these I give them to my daughter who takes them to various Nursing Homes. Great practice size and has an end purpose. I'd come across the Trail Mix pattern and thought it would be a fantastic use it up stash quilt. The first one was for a friend. This one was to use up more of the Kansas Troubles fabrics I had leftover from other projects and be given to a cousin. He was very appreciative.

Checker Hack

Quilt #17. This was a kit from Connecting Threads called "Instructions" by Cheryl Arkison. I can still find it on google by typing in 'instructions quilt cheryl arkison tag' even though it's no longer available on Connecting Threads, but at the time it cost about $35.00 on sale. I didn't want a twin size so redid the pattern to a square throw, discarding the center design panel (which I just couldn't use because it was...not attractive) and using the cut-off yellow for the center instead, hence the name of my quilt: Checker HACK. It took one day in November 2018 to cut pieces and then I waited for our 2019 July quilters retreat to make it. It took less than two days to sew it together. Great retreat project. Finished size, 69"x69", batt is a washable wool/cotton blend and I found the perfect backing on sale at Calico Creations in Mt. Vernon, WA. Quilting pattern is large meander by long-arm quilter Lyn at Camlyn Quilts in Smokey Point, WA. Start to finish the project was 4 (non-sequential) days, including the binding which I sewed on September 20th, 2019. ........... Posted April 1, 2020

Flying Unicorn Rabbit

My young friend calls this a "Rabbicorn". This was a special request and I had a lot of fun making this applique quilt.

Turn Style Plus

I used RWB yardage and some flag print fabric to make this patriotic Turn Style. I used sashing with cornerstones to bring it up to the size I wanted using just 20 blocks.

Garden Path Chicken Quilt

A friend asked me to make a quilt for his wife. She raises chickens, so that became my inspiration. Front is whimsical, back is more literal. The Garden Path pattern is from a book called 3 yard quilts. I would call them (3) 1 1/2 yard quilts. Especially if you want a double fold binding (pattern called for single fold 1 1/2" binding) and I was an inch short getting the large blue blocks, due to a large selvage on the fabric. it made a nice size quilt, 61 x 42
