Purple Batik Wheels
I'm taking a paper piecing class and this is the center. The only precuts are 1 1/2 inch strips for an inner border.

Fancy Foxes for Blyn
My granddaughter loves all animals -- and they seem to return the affection. So my DIL asked me to make this Fancy Foxes quilt for her.

Blue Breezes for Sophia
My granddaughter loves every shade of blue and I wanted to try a bargello. As a challenge to myself, I didn't use pre-cuts, but this pattern lends itself to those as all the strips are 2.5" wide.

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.

Half Hexie Table Topper
I bought a jelly roll about two years ago (Tea House by Benartex). Waited a year and started a hex quilt with a 5" Half-Hexagon template by Natalie Dawn for the MSQC. Sadly, after cutting up the whole jellyroll, I decided I didn't like the way the quilt was going together, so I decided it would be a table topper. Put it in a project box for another year and finished it today!

Wake Up Call
This is from Marci Baker's "ABC 3-D Tumbling Blocks ... and More!" book. She called the design Honeycomb Waffle, Too. But the bright yellow background screams "WAKE UP!" at me.

Missouri Star Block
I have a wall with an empty spot. What better than to put up a Missouri Star block to commemorate my favorite place on earth?

A Dreamscape for Emma
My granddaughter wanted a green and purple quilt and we decided on this pattern. I needed ten green batiks and ten purple ones. There was really only one store where I could hope to get all of that at once, so it was off to Hamilton to the Batik Boutique!

Sweet Hearts for Ellie
My granddaughter choose the pattern and the fabric. I just made it a tad bigger and added the appliquéd hearts on the back.

Color Confusion
I showed my daughter the fabrics I bought for this quilt for my son and she pointed out that, because of his color confusion issues, he probably wouldn't be able to see the design! So I ended up exchanging many text messages with my other son, who has the same eye problem and we finally hit upon the best arrangement of fabrics so he could see the design. With that in mind, I bought a whimsical backing that he could see and appreciate!

This was a gift for my daughter's now exboyfriend
I wanted to make a really special quilt for my daughter's ex-boyfriend (boyfriend at the time I made it). He had acquired his captain's license. This is what I gave him for Christmas in honor of his achievement. I think the Mariner's Star was quite appropriate.

Paint By Number Bargello
I just finished this bargello last night, all I have to do is quilt it and bind it. Only problem, is my favorite quilt shop where I rented a long arm is closing August 8th. I'm so sad. What shall I do to quilt it? I know, purchase my own long arm machine!! My husband just smiles. I did this entire quilt top in my motorhome, on the road for the summer. I am so happy. I've finally figured out how to cut, sew, iron, and piece in my motorhome without a lot of problems. Yay. Thank you for looking.

Under the Stars
This is a quilt made from the tutorial "Under the Stars." Instead of using a jelly roll and charm packs, I used 10" squares from two different batik layers cakes I had. The stars were made from leftover black jelly roll strips and black skinny strips (honey bun).

Scott's Quilt
This is the quilt I made for my son. I wanted something bright and cheerful, happy. That's what I want his life to be. It was surprisingly easy to make. I had to step outside my comfort zone and you should too. Go for it.
