First quilt for Quilts for Kids
I always wanted to learn to quilt so thought a project where they send you the material and pattern would be a great place to start - plus the quilt would go to a needy child. I learned a lot and fell in love with quilting!

Quilt for Chris
This quilt started with a layer cake of Woolies. The top was so easy to put together! I had some extra squares and made some pillows to match. Still need to quilt this one - will either be in straight lines or potentially within each square. The binding will be red.

MISSOURI CHRISTMAS STARS. . . .Stash Busting Fun
It all started with a cousin who is recuperating from surgery. I wanted to make her a get well box. When I was researching ideas on Pinterest I saw these fabric origami stars. So I printed the instructions out, which were in Russian but came with pictures. Low and behold we have the Missouri Christmas Star to give away as gifts this Christmas. I was able to make 30 Stars in 2 days. My creative juices wonder if this pattern would work as a couch throw pillow. I am going to have to experiment and find out.

Another Hourglass
For this hourglass block quilt, I used yellow, black and gray squares and some left over strips from a jellyroll. Quick and fun block to make. If you haven't seen Jenny's quick hourglass tutorial, go watch it!

Baby Quilt
My daughter is having her first child and we are thrilled it will be our 10th grandchild. They are not finding out the gender so picking a neutral color palate was really fun! They are decorating with a Where The Wild Things Are theme. I decided to make a pillow to match that will rest in the rocking chair in the nursery.

My Grandma's flowers
I wanted to create something completely by hand and so I used loads of small pieces of fabric left from other projects and just sewed and sewed for six months. This quilt is completely handsewn and I love it hope you do as well

Halloween Table Runner
I bought this fabric over a year ago at a local quilt shop and finally put it together at a retreat last week. The runner is a nice size, 18" x 56". I know the 'eyeball' fabric for the binding is Riley Blake, not sure about the rest. I haven't done much machine quilting, mostly straight lines, but with this, I experimented with some curves lines for the spider webs.

Kim's 50th
I made this quilt for my daughter's 50th birthday. It's Jenny's wallflower quilt pattern. My first try at applique. I made some mistakes at first, but in the end no one will notice because it turned out so pretty, don't you think?

Mini Tulip Quilt
I used a pattern to make this little tulip quilt to hang on the wall in my entranceway. I wanted something cheerful and welcoming and this fit the bill. I used fabrics from my stash.
