Late to quilting sort of. Two of my hobbies are model railroading and quilting. I'm married to my best friend of 25 years and have 3 (spoiled rotten ) cats. Both of my hobbies allow me to be creative and independent since they let me do it my way.

Honey I'm Home
This is what i called my first of everything. It's the first time I did free motion quilting, the first time I used the bee blocks I designed and the first time I made such a big quilt. I love it and so did my coworkers.

Cinderella quilt
One of my favorite tales is that of Cinderella. In 2015 a new version came out and i was hooked. Recently i baby sat for a freind and you guessed it,popcorn and a movie was the plan. We picked Cinderella, i did not influence in any way, as we watched my friend pulled out a blanket. Mine you i live in Florida so not cold because of weather, but because of the air conditioner. It hit me then to make a Cinderella quilt. Well this is the start

Daybreak
This was inspired by my sister-in-law. She told me one day if she wanted a quilt she would buy one.So over a few months I asked her what colors she liked and sent her a couple quilt pictures to see if she like them.Then I saw the video on Jordan Fabrics and I knew it was the one.I bought the pattern and then went to Jo-Ann fabrics and picked out the Black/White and bought the Gold and background White at Fabric Depot.Started cutting and sewing and just finished this much of it a few days ago.I am going to put 2 borders in Gold and Black. I did use the Tutorial Daybreak Quilt Pattern using a Strip Set from Jordan Fabrics on Youtube. Cozy Quilt Designs made this originally in Batiks. You can go to there site on Youtube and watch it.

My Seahorse
While on vacation this past May, we had a very rainy day and I decided to work on a collage quilt using ideas I'd picked up from doing an earlier collage quilt(Old Blue) from a pattern by Laura Heine. I sketched up a seahorse and purchased fabric and Steam A Seam2(Essential items for this project) and got to work on it. I made a good start and worked on it again when I got home. Due to other projects, I didn't completely finish it, including binding and quilting until these past few weeks.

Sport Baby Boy Quilt
This is the fourth and final quilt my sister ordered recently for all the baby showers she has attended in the past few months. I used a Varsity charm pack (Sweetwater for Moda Fabrics) and a gray back ground. No pattern was used, I just let my imagination run wild and creatively; it was quilted on my domestic machine.

'It's Robe Thirty!"
My mother-in-law was always more comfortable in a robe or house coat. She always had a cat or 2 also. After she passed away I made a quilt from 13 of her robes using the "Pins & Paws" pattern from the Spring issue of Block Magazine. There were 2 the same that I cut up and used for the back (it was pieced like crazy-I even had to use the pockets to get enough fabric!) Only the border and background squares were purchased fabric. I gave it to my sister-in-law (her only daughter) for her birthday.

Rainbow Snowflake
Pinned the tutorial from Mad Quilter's Disease blog (Aug 9, 2012)and finally decided to give it a try for the local Modern Guild's Christmas wall hanging exchange. Giving it away makes me a little sad so I'm going to have to make another one for my own sewing room. Measures 16 x 16.

Project of Doom Baby Quilt
Jennifer Ofenstein designed the blocks and has them for free on FandomInStitches.com. When I found out I was going to be a grandmother, I immediately started this Harry Potter themed quilt for my new grandson (due in January). The front: Background was done with yardage and the rest was made with scraps and fat quarters from my stash. The back: 10" squares of Harry Potter Collection by Camelot Design Studio and yardage from stash. Quilting by Rainey Turner.
