Wanted to make something "Happy" for someone who is going through cancer treatments. Making the matching pillow was fun especially putting in a zipper to make washing easier. This has worked as she smiles every time she wraps herself in it.

Patriotic

This is for my step son, Stevie. He is an amazing young man serving right now in the Air force. He has a heart of gold and is always first to offer help. I couldn't think of a better quilt pattern that fits his personality than a patriotic themed friendship star. Now, I will say that this is my first attempt with triangles. I cut out squares, then cut each one in half to make the triangles. Then sewed the triangles back together to make the half squares.... theeeeeennnn I ran across Missouri Star and Jeni's tutorial on half square triangles... I wish I saw that shortcut before cutting out all those triangles! LOL Live and learn and I have been hooked on the quilt tutorials since. :-)

JEWEL TONED TABLE SCARF

A planned hostess gift for a friend who has a beautiful jewel toned, gradient Christmas tree. Batik charms from MSQC on the front. Used a MSQC grab bag scrap on the back that has a batik sea turtle print. Thought I'd never use that when I saw it! However, I think it's perfect for this! So, now it is reversible: the top for Christmas and the back for Summer by the pool. (Nov 2015)

Retriever's Star

Elizabeth Studios came out with their Dog breeds fabric and I decided I needed one with just the labs in honor of the lab that kept me sane for almost 12 years. It was a no-brainer to include ducks, camo, hunter orange and the Hunter's Star quilt pattern.

Backdraft

I have always wanted to make a firefighter quilt, although I'm not sure why. I finally found the right fabric and while making a disappearing 9-patch, I had the thought - storm at sea and call it Backdraft. I finished both quilts and, with the approval of my quilter, I purchased an edge-to-edge fire/rescue quilting pattern.

Christmas Table Runner

I really like the fabrics in the Winter's Song line by Holly Taylor for Moda. I picked up a charm pack and thought it would make a nice table runner. I found Jenny's YouTube tutorial for the Zig Zag Charm Pack Table Runner and I was off and running! I machine quilted the project using some of the decorative stitches on my machine.

Somerset Table Scarf

Rec'd this Somerset floral on brown print fabric scrap in a MSQC grab bag. The white is from a pre-cut charm pack. The back was purchased from Walmart's discount bin for 75¢. The thread is a variegated green and almost yellow thread - just for fun! This is perfect for my sis-in-law's interior colors. Decided she needs 3 to make a complete set for her living and dining area. Hope she likes the first machine sewn gift that I've made for her! (Dec 2015)

Rail Fence

I made this quilt for my little grandson. The appliqués are stuffed. He's 14 now and still uses it when he's sick! I better make him a bigger one....

Under the Sea

TBT: This Bulls Eye scrap quilt is from the book Quilts From Aunt Amy, published in 1999. It was very popular at the time for civil war and reproduction fabrics. I made this as a wedding gift for a very modern, funky couple. It's all dark colors of the deep sea from green to purple on the cool side of the color wheel with some oranges for contrast (think fish). The raw edged circles look so cute after its washed. They held up, too, after 12 years of heavy use.

Jo's Quilt

I made this for a very dear friend of mine. It is a much more traditional quilt than usual for me. I love the simplicity of it and so did she.
