I learned to sew on this quilt. Everything involved was new to me- from using a rotary cutter, making 1/4" seam allowances, putting on a border (or three) sandwiching, quilting, using a walking foot, and the binding, From start to finish, I looked up each new step as I came to it or watched a video on how to do it. I was able to complete the quilt before Christmas 2014 and give it to my kiddo as a present. He loves this quilt and I love that it is keeping him snuggly warm in our bitter cold winters here. This quilt is a keeper and will stay in our family.

Groovy Falling Charms

Made from donated fabric. I pieced the back into blocks to make use of all the fabric, so it made it reversible. This is a very fast pattern but doesn't look it.

10 Minute day and night

This is Eleanor Burns Day and Night pattern, with a little 10 minute block in it to add that punch of red. This was one of my first completed quilts that wasn't a rag quilt, or a QAYG. I do wish the picture would show the entire quilt that I had uploaded.

Simple Kona WindowPanes

I had a bunch of tonal squares, so I put them with sashing and a border. My kitty Neeper loves this one.

Batik Geese Crossing

I made this quilt for my niece, Julia, who is mad about peacocks. Rather than making her a peacock quilt, I made her a flying geese quilt in peacock-colored batiks on a black background. She loves it.

First Quilt, not quite what I visioned.

A year and one/half ago I was not a quilter. Saw a quilt though that I had to have and that was the start of it all. It is somewhat of a sorry mess, but still a great cover-up on the couch. Since then I have made twelve more quilts, each time getting better. Love batiks but have now started to move into other fabrics too.

QR Code

I made this birthday quilt for my son who is a math & computer whiz. It's a working QR code! I found a free website that makes the QR code from text you type in. Then printed it out to use as my pattern. Sewed the black and white pieces together row by row. Backed it with flannel of the university from which he graduated for a cozy quilt.

Mike's Quilt

I originally purchased this as a kit at my local quilt store but then added my own material on to make it bigger and longer. I machine quilted it on my home machine, first one ever. I am really proud of it! And my son loves it!

Pond in the Meadow

Inspired by a jelly roll of batiks. I made all the blocks then then realized the only thing I had that matched for a border was an echinacea print from Micheal Miller. It looks like a pond in a meadow of wildflowers to me, so I use it in the dead of winter to remind me spring's just around the corner!.

Robert's Quilt

When my nephew Robert found out he had pancreatic cancer at the age of 48, I made this for him because as I could not be with him .He loved it and carried it from room to room his sister said. It was not much, but it made us feel closer. Robert passed away barely two months later. I will forever call this pattern Robert's pattern.
