Snowman's Trip

This is my second UFO finished in 2016. It's made from four Snowman Gatherings charm packs and additional fabric from Primitive Gatherings. It was meant to be my lap quilt but I kinda got carried away. Its 77 inches square. Room for two laps....

Hudson's LITTLE BOY/BIG BOY Reversible Quilt

My adorable little grandson, Hudson, was born with Downs Syndrome as well as an unrelated problem called Hirschsprung's Disease. At just 6 days old he had his first major surgery and has had umpteen procedures since that time. When I decided to learn how to make quilts (in honor & memory of my sweet Momma Betty Ann Bivens Wilson 1931-2008), my first bed size quilt was an oversized twin for Hudson. I chose a quite large disappearing 9-patch using an I SPY layer cake. This would/could be used as a learning tool as he got older. It could also be used in several of his weekly therapies. After the top was pieced, I had the bright idea to make it a truly reversible quilt that could see him all the way through his adulthood. My son, his Daddy, is an avid outdoorsman...hunter, fisherman...like generations of his forefathers so in order to KISS (keep it simple stupid), I did a simple stripe design using wide strips of outdoor fabrics (mallard ducks, bears, fish, etc) sewn as stripes into the overall background fabric of a black & white hashtag design. I don't have a long arm so I found a LQS that rented time on their long arm out to customers. I went and did an overall super simple pattern in bright color variegated thread. Once back home I added my quilt label and VOILA! My first Big Quilt!! Hudson and his older brother Parker drag it out in the floor all the time and play on it. My heart sings with joy!

Ellery's Coat-of-Many-Colors Quilt

Although I now have many quilts made from MSQ patterns/tutorials, this queen size quilt was only my 2nd to undertake and was pre-discovery of all things MSQ. Ignorance, thankfully, IS bliss! Ellery is my 3rd grandchild but my first grandDaughter so I'd spent many hours sewing dresses, coats, nursery bedding, shorts sets, etc, in her first 5 years. I saw this quilt & tutorial on Pinterest (http://www.modabakeshop.com/2012/10/simply-woven-quilt.html) and decided it was the perfect quilt for my El bc I could use up lots of the fabric scraps from all those things I'd made for her. Win/Win, right? I mean, Ellery gets a quilt with memories stitched in every block and my stash DEcreases!! WELL, what I didn't yet appreciate was the fact that there would be MANY points in each block (like 12!!!) that would need to match up with the other 4 blocks touching it! I eagerly tackled all the pressing, cutting, starching, measuring, CUTTING, etc, & jumped in. This quilt is FAR from perfect but to Ellery and to me, it is super special!!! For the quilt back, I did a Greatly super sized log cabin with one of El Bell's favorite embroidery design in the center (from Quite-a-Stitch http://www.quite-a-stitch.com/product/sparkle-6). i'm in LOVE with this quilt, "warts and all!!"

David's Quilt

I made this quilt from a pattern I liked in Quilty. I was on my third block when I realized my mistake in the placement of the squares. Since I didn't want to take them apart and redo them I just kept going. Sometimes a mistake can turn out alright after all! My brother-in-law loved this quilt.

Jeanne's Gift

This wall hanging is my first quilt with appliqué. All fabrics were from my stash. The cutouts are from a McCalls Christmas ornament pattern. This took more time than I expected because I kept changing my mind about whether I should use additional embellishments. I was pleased with the end results and had a ton of fun making it.

MIssouri Star Pattern in blue

This is a recue quilt. Donated items in a box to our Quilt group were sorted and this item a Missouri Star was very sad looking. It had a button in the center & was gathered up in pleats & was soiled. Think the maker wanted to do a pillow . It had batting attached but was all in a wad and no backside. Soon I found a few more unsewn pieces in the box. So I gathered tossed item from the trash and took it home, I carefully took it apart and washed her. Yup good as new. Later the next week I found in our cupboard materials that matched. So I drew the pattern pieces from the finished item and added 1/4 inch seam and made another Missouri Star. Not enough Material to do more as I needed some for the back side too. Decided a lap or couch size would work though. This is how she came out. Giving her to a friend in the north to keep her warm, blue is her favorite color.

Patchwork Garden

My sister called me and asked me to create a baby quilt for one of her friends. The only catch was I only had one week... Ha! I took on the challenge. I use the 'Double Slice' pattern thinking it be quick and fun. And it was! I use FQs from my stash, cut them in to 10" squares and followed the pattern. After washing it finished at 43 inches square. My sister loves the bright colors and is sure the new mom-to-be will also. It's only the third quilt I have FMQ and I am feeling more confident. It isn't perfect but it's done!! And I'm happy with how it turned out.

Princess Bed Quilt

Cats and quilts! You know, right? Well I have 5 of them and they love to "help" me quilt, usually by lying right on top of my working area and nearly impaling themselves on my needle. None more so than my one female cat Regina. So, I made her a quilt of her own to curl up on. She is still my faithful assistant but uses her new princess bed frequently.
