I made this quilt for my dear friend Suzanne to mark her 75th birthday. Suzanne has been my neighbor and friend for 13 years. She has been here for me during some very stressful times and I wanted her to know how much I love and appreciate her. Happy Birthday, Suzanne! The pattern for this quilt is on the cover of the first Mod Block issue from MSQ. I loved this pattern and could hardly wait to find a fabric to do my own version, although I also loved the red one that by Amy Ellis did.

Annalise's Quilt

Baby quilt for my 4th granddaughter. Design came from 2 different fish quilts I found online. I used blues b/c her room is painted a light/medium teal that changes hues as the sun light moves through the day. Some of the fabric patterns mimic water. The border is scraps of the fish fabrics that follow the fish from light to dark around the quilt. Quilting was done in waves to represent water.

Summer in the Park

I made this quilt for my daughter. She picked the pattern and material. I cut my own fabric but followed the Summer in the Park tutorial from MSQC. The front is batiks except the white background. The back has flannel on it. It came out really bright and beautiful. She loves it.

Black & White Flying Geese Quilt

I love the contrast between black & white and this is the second quilt I have made using these two colors only. I decided to make the background fabric split down the middle of the quilt also. One of my guest rooms is black & white and now I have the perfect quilt for it.

I made this bay quilt for my niece's first child. Some Goodnight Moon fabric was used on the front and flannel for the back.

Second baby boy quilt

A second smaller baby quilt using much of the same fabric that I used on the first quilt I made for my niece. I also tried a bit of free motion quilting in the center of each of the blocks. I followed a pattern called Molly.

American Flag

I loved the MSQC tutorial and had to make the tumbler flag for my house. I made this in 2014. I now have it proudly hanging in my upstairs hallway.

My Happy Quilt

When I first saw Jenny's tutorial I knew I had to make one. I just love the Kaffe Fassett fabric. That's why I call it the "Happy Quilt". And I'm very happy with the way it turned out. It's off to be quilted now. I can't wait for it to come back.

Picket Fence Pattern in 6 Sizes from Wall to King

I am super excited to introduce Picket Fence to you! She is the second in my budding line of quilt patterns! Picket Fence is a versatile pattern that looks great in many fabric collections! Sweet pastels or bold, masculine prints are perfect for Picket Fence. The cover quilt is lap size in PB&J by Basic Grey. The pink, yellow and green version is the original Picket Fence in Spring quilt from 2012, making it up as I sewed. This quilt is the reason I named the pattern Picket Fence; it reminded me of a white picket fence on a lovely spring day, thus the name, Picket Fence in Spring. Recently I was asked about the pattern through my Etsy shop, and I decided it was time to write it! This pattern is layer cake friendly and comes with instructions for six sizes from wall hanging to king! The pattern includes fabric requirements for using layer cake squares or yardage. It also includes mock-ups of all sizes in various fabric collections so you can see what each size looks like when finished. You can find this pattern in my Etsy pattern shop: http://bit.ly/ShopBusyHandsPatterns

Mostly Morse

This quilt was a quilt kit picked up on our 2014 summer road trip through Paducah, Kentucky... Of course I visited the renowned Hancocks of Paducah. The best way to convince my husband that I "needed" a quilt kit was to pick one of his own heart. As an amateur radio operator, who could possible say no to a pattern called "Morse Code"? I finished piecing this for my husband on Field Day weekend this summer (2015) when lots of Ham's around the country are flexing the radio frequency bands. Consider this my CQ.. CQ. It doesn't say much, E, A, ?, !... maybe I just left the rest unsaid. The piecing is great for 2 1/2" Jelly roll strips. These were Tonga Treats Batiks. I quilted it using a pattern called "Funky Fans".
