Batik Jewels

Love all batiks! This quilt perfect for scrappy - use all those leftover strips and squares from other projects, add a border to compliment, and you have a beautiful quilt.

Saggy Baggy Elephant

As a child, I loved the book about the Saggy Baggy Elephant. Used a leftover piece of the elephant fabric, added a variety of sizes of WOF strips and some flowers. Donated the quilt and I hope some little girl is cuddling under it.

The Old Post

I love doing some of the smaller art quilts. It is a good way to practice machine quilting and a good way to find different ways to embellish the piece.

Do Elephants Sing?

My friend collects elephants - any and all kinds - and she purchased pieces of the out of print Vera Bradley elephant fabric as it came onto eBay. I made several table runners for her but my favorite is this quilt. The reference to music comes because I used black and white musical note fabric for the backing. I chose to quilt it using a modern straight line method.

Lauren's Quilt

My daughter, who is in the Air National Guard, was deployed to the Mideast for six months which meant her husband had to care for two young children in addition to running his business. Lauren to the rescue! My son-in-law managed to get the kids to and from day care but beyond that Lauren stepped in not only with the kids but also with some housecleaning. The quilt was made as a thank you to this special young woman.

I Spy for Payton

Made for my grandson. Fun to collect all the novelty fabrics. Found an on-line source for 5 inch precut novelty squares. Added photos of the other three grandchildren. Easy construction. Should make more.

Red Hat Momma

Made this for my mother using a magazine idea. She enjoyed it in her home and then later in her room at the nursing home. After her passing the quilt was given to mother's very good friend.
