The blocks were originally to have been 16 patch hearts set on point. I decided to see if I could come up with another design and they seemed to fit as flowers. Made with donated scraps cut into 2" squares.

Dad's Shirts

After my father passed away, I helped my mother clear out the closet of all his cloths. I found these plaid shirts that he used to wear all the time in various colors. If you know anything about the Hawaiian cowboy (aka the paniolo) I am pretty sure you recognize the palaka shirts. I took some of Dad's clothes and made various quilts out of them for the whole family. This was one of the designs I came up with. Needless to say most of my family was shocked I could sew, but were happy that they have something to remember Dad by.

Friends under the Sea

After seeing several quilts using fabric panels, I decided to take the plunge. This was so simple. I cut the small aquatic squares and used Jenny Doan's "The Tipsy Tumbler" quilt idea and enclosed the small squares within 10" squares. Then used those squares as the border around the big panel. Included with the fabric panel were coordinating strips which I sewed on opposite corners. This was so easy.

Halloween Table Runner

I bought this fabric over a year ago at a local quilt shop and finally put it together at a retreat last week. The runner is a nice size, 18" x 56". I know the 'eyeball' fabric for the binding is Riley Blake, not sure about the rest. I haven't done much machine quilting, mostly straight lines, but with this, I experimented with some curves lines for the spider webs.

Quilts for Room Divider

These two Batik Quilts separate a bedroom area from a living area in our basement. I used layer cakes and stash, cotton batting, and primium white muslin for a backing so that the bedroom area could be any decor. The are on a rod hung with hooks in the ceiling and chains around the rod. The quilting is done with a walking foot. I just made wavy lines around 1/2 inch apart.

Barn & Silo Baby Quilt

I made this for a friend to give as a gift. The recipients have a long history of farming in the family. I hope they love it! The patterns are from the Lori Holt Vintage Farm Girl series.

Papa Bear (Paw)

A Christmas present for my father and also the third quilt I've ever made. Made with Kansas Troubles Quilters' Heartfelt fabric collection using MSQC's Bear Paw tutorial. The flying geese border is paper pieced from all the trimmings made while creating the bear paw blocks.

Diamonds

Baby blanket large enough for mom or dad to cuddle under it with the baby while they ponder the age old question,"Will I ever sleep again?" It has a flannel back.

scrappy disappearing nine patch

I am still trying to use up some of my fabric stash! This disappearing nine patch was simple to piece. I adjusted the depth of the white border so the zigzag would fit. (more half square triangles to make the zigzag) White minky on the back. I like the scrappy binding, but am still working on perfecting binding application. The quilting was done by an excellent long arm quilter.
