  You've Got Mail

  I was inspired by Jenny's tutorial and the very next day Summer Breeze 3 was the deal of the day. It had all my favorite colors. It was fate! I ordered my layer cake and waited on pins and needles for it to arrive. When it came it was so beautiful. I got right to work on it and am so pleased with it. I made it for a very special niece. I hope she loves it too.

  Scrap Jellyroll Race

  So several years ago when the jellyroll race first came out, I decided to give it a try. Didn't have a jellyroll so I just used a bunch of scrap strips we had. I think I got a bit too much into the groove of sewing the strips together as I had enough for this large quilt, a throw quilt and the binding for both! It sat under the bed in my mom's sewing room until recently when it was rediscovered. Just finished putting the binding on it last night. It is definitely more of a second quilt on the bed then the top pretty one, but since I put flannel on the back it will be nice and warm in the winter.

  Ballerina Wall Hanging - Four Swans Dancing

  I have always loved the art of Ballet. If I'd been shorter, thinner, and more athletic, I would have dreamt of being a ballerina. Alas, that was not to be. I am a sewer which means I can create ballerinas from fabric and thread. This is the result! The ballerinas are original designs by me. It is machine appliquéd and quilted, also done by me. The wall hanging measures 25 inches wide and 21 inches high, not including the hanging loops secured at the top.

  Snapshots

  This quilt was a Block of the Month from Fat Quarter Shop and proceeds went to St. Jude's Hospital, it was a lot of fun to make. I learned different techniques.
