This quilt is one of two I made for a cousin in AZ when she had twins over a decade ago. It was made from feedsack fabricsI inherited from our grandmother's fabric stash. Unfortunately, USPS delivered it to the wrong address, got an illegible signature for it, never found it nor paid for it (not that it could be replaced at any price). Moral: Never send a quilt via USPS.

Lost in the Mail #2

This is the second of two quilts I made for a cousin in AZ having twins, out of feedback fabric from our grandmother's stash. It was lost by USPS when I shipped them both in the same box.

Ombre Stash #3

baby quilt made in 2008 for a friend. I was wondering what to do with the ombre fabric. Stitched in the ditch. Quick and easy.

Stash Baby Quilt #1 (2008)

Finally had a little free time and decided to use it to make a few baby quilts, so I'd have them already done the next time one of my friends or relatives had a little one. This was made with hand-dyed solids, plus the multi-colored store-bought background.

Stash Green Baby Quilt

Another baby quilt made in 2008, when I realized it would be smart to have some that weren't obviously girly or particularly boyish, since not all my friends wanted to know the gender of their baby before he/she was born.

The Fish Quilt

Made in 2018 as a gift for my cousin, the scuba diver. One of my favorite quilts, and also one of the most challenging I've ever made. It was a combination of multiple patterns from the Crafty Ol' Broads book entitled Beyond the Block. I've made 3 more inspired by their patterns, and have another 1 in progress and 2 more planned after that.

Hot-n-Cold Quilt #4

Made in 2021 using a free pattern from a QA weekend quilt retreat I attended in VA in 1999. I love this pattern for its bright colors and the multiple layouts possible with the blocks. I made my parents a queen size version, and one of my daughters has a twin size version. I also made a baby quilt of the pattern using pastels with white in place of the black, but forgot to take pics of if before I gave it away (I forget to do that way too often).

Lady bug fabric baby quilt #2/4

Driving thru Oh on my way to NC, I stopped at a random quilt shop (what happens when I see a billboard on the hwy) where I found a pack of fat quarters I loved. I almost never buy collections, because one of my fave parts of quilting is choosing the individual fabrics myself, but I made an exception for this collection.
