My first quilt.
I had dabbled with quilting for many years but honestly the sewing machine I had and I didn't get along too well but with three kids I couldn't afford a big fancy one. For Christmas in 2013 my husband bought me a new one and this was the first thing I made.

Broken Bars
I loved the tutorial for this and thought it would be perfect for a "guy" quilt.

Aviatrix quilt
Loved all the different blocks that went into this. I loved choosing similar colors to the original pattern but going with some prints and batiks instead of all solids.

Cobblestone quilt
This pattern is from the book Scrappy Firework Quilts by Edyta Sitar. I loved the pattern and the colors in the original pattern. I had some similar fabric in a jelly roll that I thought would work perfectly. I gave this as a Christmas present to my parents.

Bargello
I once saw a watercolor bargello in a magazine a long time ago. I have always wanted to do one. I have proven to myself that I'm no good at picking out fabrics for a watercolor version but with red black and white it worked.

Jelly roll Race
This was one of the first tutorials I had seen from MSQC. I needed a quick fun quilt so I used batik strips.

Christmas Log Cabin
I fell in love with a Watermelon log cabin quilt I’d seen. I decided to try it using Christmas fabrics instead. Then I though I’d try something different and leave the top of the quilt with peaks or a crown

Hunters Star
After making many quilts from Jenny's tutorials, I had the confidence to try this using a specific template.

Log Cabin
This is a variation on the beloved Log Cabin Quilt. I feel that this quilt is my most significant quilt I've made. I call it my Journey quilt. I began making this quilt in 1998. I made several blocks and then I experienced several profound life changes and I didn't resume working on it until about 2009. I used a variety of fabrics in the making of this quilt. Many of the fabrics are from Thimbleberries but the rest were picked up here and there and also pulled from my stash.

Big Star Wedding Quilt
I made this Big Star for my daughter's wedding. She picked the fabrics for the stars. It was not difficult and makes a big statement. I used 7" squares cut from yardage to make the stars and followed Jenny's tutorial. I had it quilted by a LQS.

Big Star Wall Hanging
I love purple and green. I also wanted to try mitering a boarder and using my scalloped edge ruler. Here's the result! I used yardage rather then precuts.

Bear Claw "expanded"
I absolutely love to watch MSQC tutorials! This week (while snowed in) I watched Jenny's BEAR CLAW tutorial. I really liked it and decided to expand it into a table topper. When I bought our recent sunroom cushions, I bought extra (all on sale of course) so took one of the extras and cut it into strips for the border! I really like how the topper tuner out! Thanks, Jenny ~ for all of the great ideas.

Squares, Squares and More Squares
I was part of a 10 x 10” solid swap in my guild. My daughter asked me for a new Quilt for her apartment and knowing she likes linear things, I found this pattern and thought it would be a great way to use some of my solids.
