I made this sampler quilt during a local quilting class over several weeks. Making the sampler quilt was interesting and fun because we made a different block each week. The binding was made from different fabric scraps which gives the quilt a unique look. It was a gift to my mother who lives in Arizona.

Grandparents' Baby Gift

Dear friends are about to become grandparents for the first time. I thought it would be fun to make a cloth book for them to enjoy when baby comes to visit.

Tree Lot

I saw this Daniela Stout pattern and example quilt at the San Diego Quilt Show in 2012and fell in love. Batiks! I got Robert Kaufman's Cornucopia 2 jelly roll for the trees, Cornucopia 2 Autumn for the backing and Makower UK Essentials White for the background. Fast forward two years and my cousin is getting married. They are from Missouri where trees and snow are a thing. They live in CA so a lap quilt would be perfect and fit in my novice wheelhouse. Daniela was incredibly helpful with the tree top block since the first time out I cut off the points by mistake. All quilting is trial and error. :) I pieced it and fretted. A wedding gift is a heady thing so I decided to have Missouri Star Quilt Company (LOVE them) do the machine quilting. The job they did with the snowflake pattern was amazing. I created a lovely label by printing a fabric background with lettering in a box in the center and sent it off with some $$ in case they really weren't quilt people. ;) Needless to say, I heard back today and they LOVE it. I am so gratified and stoked to keep on what has become an incredible journey. I love piecing and learned so much. Next up will be my first attempt at machine quilting myself.

The Moose is loose

I made this quilt for my son's birthday. His nickname is moose. I love this fabric collection by Benatrex. I created the pattern and added coordinating fabric to the Benatrex panel from our local quilt shop for this quilt. I also got to do a bit of paper piecing, and free motion quilting - which I am a novice at - but I have to continue to practice free motion quilting.

Crazy Memories

I took over care for my dad after my mom passed away in 2009. As he grew sicker I could no longer spend long hours in my sewing room down stairs so over the last few years had completely stopped quilting. As my stress grew worse dealing with all things dad, my urge to quilt kept getting stronger and stronger and finally I couldn't wait another minute. I cleared out the dining room and turned it into a sewing room. For my first project back after not sewing at all for 4 or 5 years, I decided to make a crazy quilt. I fell in love with one I found in an antique shop when I was a little kid and vowed to have one of my own someday. I'm in my 50's so decided if it was going to happen I'd better make my own. One square of each row has a center that features either one my my kids, or something I love. I also decided to make it a quilt as you go project. I made it for my bed, but found I didn't really like sleeping under it, but it looks awesome on the back of my couch. It really brightens up the living room.

Scrappy Rag

Made this scrappy rag baby quilt out of flannel fabric I had in my stash. I love rag quilts. I think the next one I make for me will be a rag.

Scrappy Bright Stars

When my sewing table starts to turn invisible under piles of leftover fabric, its time to sort. Yardage, fat quarters, charms or 2.5" squares. This quilt is from those charms and 2.5" squares. Each color reminds me of a previous project.

T-SHIRT MEMORY QUILT

As a surprise for Christmas 2014 I made my first quilt out of T-Shirts that my Daughter and I together had cut out for a quilt in 2006 after her high school graduation. 8 years later I was inspired by all the videos MSQC has to offer so I pieced together her quilt and added some photos to go with those moments in time.It was quilted by a local long arm quilter. I also made her a Tote to carry it in while traveling.

I loved this fabric and created a quilt around the focus fabric. The grandchildren have this to use at our house when they visit.

Big Sky with a twist

I made this in 2015 for my sister-in-law who celebrated a landmark birthday recently. I used a pattern by Karen Montgomery in her book Scrap Crazy 6" called Big Sky. I made a modification to the pattern, used batiks and put flannel on the back. It came out beautiful. She loved it.
