I bought this layer cake at quilt market 2012. I loved Carina's booth so much I just had to make something for myself. This quilt is queen size.

Summer in the Park

I saw the tutorial for this quilt and thought sure that looks easy I'll do it over thanksgiving break. Wow not as easy as I thought especially for the third quilt I'd made. It's a great pattern!

Giant feather

After seeing Shannon Paige's winning entry to the Riley Blake Challenge 2014, I knew I had to make it. I searched everywhere for a pattern and finally came up with this (my first attempt at paper piecing!!)...

Monkey Business

This was made for my great-nephew. He was born 6 weeks early so had to get it finished up quickly.

Little Buds

While on a quilting trip with my quilting buddy, Lana, we came across this Primitive Gatherings pattern and decided it was time to try a wool project. Through the process I learned, not only how to work with wool, but also how to use thangles. Who thinks up these things?? So glad they did!

Esther's Big Girl Quilt

Esther is only 7 months old, but big brother Jonathan had to give up the crib for his little sister. So Jonathan needed a big boy quilt. Things weren't all that grand, the pattern didn't work out well at all. I contacted the company and they sent another pack of material (and a different pattern- that I didn't use). In the long run, I made Jonathan's quilt work with the material I had, and Esther's came as a bonus! Lucky girl!

Daddy Mike in Heaven Quilt

My son-in-law passed away suddenly and on the same day my daughter discovered she was pregnant. After my granddaughter was born, my daughter gave me his jeans for safe keeping. We discussed making a quilt with them for my granddaughter someday. This year it has been 10 years since her daddy (Daddy Mike) passed away and my granddaughter turns 10 this year; seemed like a good time to make that quilt. Although my granddaughter has another daddy now, she refers to him as "Daddy Mike in Heaven." The hearts in the quilt represent how much Daddy Mike loves her and the stars represent him watching over her from Heaven.

Jim and Morgan's Binding Tool Star Quilt

My son's wife is a nurse working nights at the hospital. So, she wanted a dark bedroom, since she'd be sleeping during the day. Well, I made them a modern dark quilt and they painted the three walls chocolate fudge brown and teal to go with that quilt. My son hates the bedroom. Doesn't mind that quilt, but he can't wait for his wife to move to day shift so he can lighten the bedroom. In talking to him, I realized he wanted something beachy. Light, airy, and like the sea. That's about the time the Binding Tool Star tutorial came out. When the kids came up for spring break, I showed them what colors I wanted to use. Not realizing that the colors are very similar to the quilt they already have sans the brown borders. I hope they love it. There are already a lot of folks that have offered to take it, even before the kids see it in person!

My First Quilt

I began quilting just recently at 70 years old. I watched loads of Jenny's tutorials, and decided to do the Garden of Eden quilt for my daughter. I used Lulu Roses and although it is not perfect she is thrilled with it.
