For some reason I love the Halloween holiday. The colors are amazing in our area and I even adore the fallen leakages with their individual shapes and sizes. I just have to make something spooky!

Lace Bats

I could not resist making the bats for Halloween. The perfect place to take a photo was under my maple tree one early evenIng. FSL is fun. Happy Halloween.

Wool Masks

I’ve been learning more sewing techniques. This project was so much fun! Peter Pan and Wendy are my favorites! In the hoop embroidery takes time but quilts and sews accurately. Small projects can be finished quickly and make me happy.

Easter 2019

I decided to make something with wool felt. I decided to sew it all by hand. The rabbit was store bought. My husband helped draw the rabbit patterns. The day after Easter I was wheeled into surgery. Hand sewing was relaxing and helped get my mind off the surgery. I embroidered the tails and outline of the rabbits using the button hole stitch and French knot.

New Orleans

My daughter married into a family from New Orleans. I quilted and embroidered small gifts for them this year. I call them jewelry holders. They loved them!

Christmas Gifts 2018

I worked hard on my quilted Christmas gifts this year. I added embroidery designs and made ornaments for my brother who travels to Africa at least 3 times a year.

Bowl Cozy

These were so much fun to make. My 84 year old mother requested 3 but I feel she needs more for guests.

Ornament Swap

This is my second ornament swap. I wanted to design mine by an old fashion way. I had a flyer in the mail and I just started cutting out a pattern. Gingerbread people are fun and simple plus the girl one needed a bow of course.

Elk Block

Every fall we go to the mountains to hear the Elk bugle. This week I started my Mountain Wildlife quilt blocks. The first block is of an elk. I used fall colors and added a bit of texture. The antlers are made of wool felt. Hopefully the bear claw is next so stay tuned.
