Bugs

The younger of my step brothers works for an exterminator, he handles a dog trained to sniff out bed bugs...yep that's how they make sure infestations are cleared, those noses can't be fooled. Anyway, Amy Bradley applique pattern, the two baseball playing ants had 44 pieces. The lipstick kisses on the Bee's sneakers are from scraps I inherited from his grandmother as my step mother gave me all her mother's fabric.

Blue Line

The older of my step brothers is in law enforcement. Each star represents an agency he has worked for. The first was as an Army MP followed by an Arizona Sheriff's Office, an Arizona Police Department then The United States Marshals and now an Arizona Indian tribe of which his wife is a member. Each agency is embroidered under the stars. The backing is cigars which he has a thing for.

Niece from other side of the family grad quilt

Commissioned by her mother who had her choose the fabrics that are focus of the blocks and I chose the back ground and what pattern it would be. Quilted with the same circles as print on flannel backing

Nephew's graduation quilt

Made for nephew in same "tradition" as his elder sister's which I posted sometime ago. Quilting pattern is also a bronc rider

Not Halloween

Inspite of the time of year this is not about Halloween. It was made for my Chiropractor, who must frequently undo the damage from too many hours at the machine and cutting table. The demand always increases this time of year because I over extend myself with too many Xmas projects. It is 26" square and the office walls are a much darker shade of the purple border. The appliqued letters cover up the bats to minimize the Halloween effect. Articulated skeleton fabric without Halloween influence is hard to find.

Baby 2

The about to be 1yr old got a new baby brother, although he arrived a month early

Baby 1

For a boy turning 1 mid August

Shattered

my husband's Xmas. Attic window pattern that is supposed to suggest an old abandoned brick building with broken windows and old crazed glass. He chose a vine quilting pattern as if old vines are growing up over this old building. It has a Minkee backing
