I made this cute Fall wall hanging for my daughter and grandchildren. I also added some "Bling" for an added touch. I made a cross on the back which always pleases my grandchildren.

Baby Room Wallhanging

My daughter's friend was decorating a nursery for her first baby. Her theme was elephants and the colors were gray, turquoise and yellow. This elephant applique from GG Designs worked great on my Babylock Elegante machine. Was a fun project and she was delighted to open this at her baby shower.

Revised Modern Courthouse Steps

The project is stemmed from a challenge in the Modern Quilt Group I belong to for the quilt guild Quilt Show in 2018. It's pieced at current and there will have to be a thought process for the backing and the quilting yet to do! I was just so excited, I just had to post the process so far!

Paper Piecing Vintage

This is a paper pieced quilt designed by Jennifer Ofenstein at Sewhooked.com. The pattern comes in 2 sizes - 6" squares and 12" squares. This is the 6" and I'm currently making a 12". The wonderful folks at Missouri Star Quilt Co. quilted it.

Maine ocean wallhanging

Even if you aren't on vacation, it is nice to think about the ocean. This is a Sue Pritt pattern. You copy the pattern pieces onto your fabric and 2 sided adhesive paper. You place the pieces onto the background fabric. It is a lot of cutting the pieces apart and placing them in place. It reminded me of playing with paper dolls as a child. Sue has some nice designs for sale including ocean scenes and lakes. Try one. It is very relaxing.

Homes Sweet Homes

I had never made a landscape quilt before but now that I'm retired, I have time on my hands to explore new things. I designed this quilt to capture the homes and summer cottages we lived in while raising a family. It's now hanging in our summer cottage and always starts a conversation with friends and family about memories from each house.

For Freddy & Gwen

This quilt is straight out of a wonderful book, Freddy & Gwen Collaborate Again, by Freddy Moran and Gwen Marston. It was based on a 1937 vintage quilt. I loved building my own "fabric" by stacking random width strips to create strata. I then cut each strata using a 10.5" square ruler placed on the diagonal. Look closely and you'll see that some strips are also pieced - straight cuts from the edges of the strata pieces left after cutting out the squares. Many fabrics were fat quarters from Judy's Sew and Vac in Santa Cruz; mostly orange, red and gold florals and abstract dots with some blotchy but bright solids, stripes and black & white prints. Used Freddy & Gwen's large black and white dots and solid black sashing for the four blocks in a four block design. Completed nine of the sixteen blocks during three weeks in Santa Cruz, CA, in May/June 2016. Finished quilt top in July. Long arm quilted in variegated thread in circular bubbles of varying sizes, which looks great on the solid black backing.

Scrappy Pumpkins

I kept seeing such cute pumpkin quilts online and on Instagram and I knew I had to make one too- we just moved into a new town and we are really sprucing our our new house. I found this pattern on Craftsy, by Must Love Quilts. I added 2.5in sashing and a 5.5in border. I used some of my stash fabric and I bought more from my LQS. On my pieced backing, I stitched down some of the selvedges I used. I absolutely love how this turned out and it's perfect for keeping warm all autumn long!

In Need of a Kiss

I made this for my Guild's "Kiss a Frog Challenge" for our September 2016 Quilt Show. Those who took on the challenge were given 3 "ugly" fabrics to make into something beautiful. We were allowed to add up to 3 other fabrics, and the finished quilt could measure no more than 24 inches square. I took the challenge literally and went with the Frog Prince theme, using the blue print for the flower pot and half the petals, the red for flower petals, and the yellow for the flower center and the frog's crown. I added a brown on brown print for the dirt, green for the frog and flower stem and leaf, and a white on white for the background.

Zuzu's Petals Sashed Half Hexi

I found these fat quarters at the Daytona Beach Quilt Show in May 2016. The fabric sang to me. Frond's Zuzu's Petals by Stephanie Brandenburg. Oh I waited for something special to come along and there it was, from Missouri Star Quilt Company, the tutorial for the Sashed Half Hexi!! I'm going to make a tab top hanging and put it in my office right across from my desk so I can look at it every day! How perfect!

Oversized album quilt block quilt

Used a pattern out of Camille Roskelley's Simply Retro called Vintage but scaled it down to 42x42" and instead of making a traditional quilt sandwich with batting and backing, I'm quilting the top on to 4 layers of flannel with straight line quilting a half inch apart to make into a faux chenille. Should be cozy!
