Mom and Dad's Anniversay Quilt

Hi everyone,
   Happy 4th of July to everyone, a little early!  This is a quilt that I recently gave my Mom and Dad for their 50th wedding anniversay.  They really liked it.  The blocks are a nine patch pattern called "shoo fly."  The flowers are hydrangea in my Mom's yard.

Baby Quilts

  These photos are of two baby quilt tops that I recently completed for my quilt group.  They will be finished and given to families in my community.  They are fun to make because I get to use "baby" themed fabric!

Egyptian Tumbler Wallhanging

Hello everyone,
  I took a quilting class offered through my local quilt guild.  The pattern that was taught is called Tumbling Blocks.  I decided on an Egyptian theme for my quilt.  It took me some time to complete this quilt, and I'm glad I took the time because it is one of my favorite pieces that I have made.  I think I will hang it in my bedroom.

Thank you for visiting, and I hope you have a lovely day!

Mother's Day 2010

Here are some photos of a quilt that I machine quilted for my dear mother.  I used metallic threads
and I also sewed sequins, shell buttons, and my husbands handmade glass beads onto the quilt for
added decoration.  I love cats, and fabrics designed by artist Laurel Burch.  Enjoy!

Briscoe Lake Charity Quilt

I made this quilt in February 2010.  I donated it to the Briscoe Lake Association to raise money towards the payment of the Briscoe Dam.  I enjoyed sewing this quilt, and using the buttonhole stitch to outline the heart shapes, with my machine.
