Charm Quilt

This is a charm quilt I made a few years ago. It is the snowball pattern with yellow corner squares. Charm quilts are a special favorite of mine. I always look at new quilt patterns wondering if I could adapt it to a charm quilt.

Pearl on an old quilt

I call this quilt "All About Me- the First 30 Years". Each square has a conversation print which is symbolic of some event in my life from 0 to 30. I hand quilted this with black thread.  I think pearl likes it.

Stack and Whack

This is a stack and whack I made in 2001 or 2002 with casino novelty fabric I bought from Hancocks for about $2.00 a yard. Those were the days....  with the remains from this quilt I made a companion quilt with a red background. This quilt is above.

Pearl

This is Pearl on a Thimbleberries quilt I finished in 2002. Do you recognize the pattern? It was very popular back in the day.

Pickles

Here is Pickles lounging after a hard day of..... what does he do all day?

Stash enhancement and Garden Fence progress

THis is fabric I ordered from Connecting Threads. I love shopping there. I have no idea what I am going to do with these fabrics but I just love them!

The following 3 photos are progress on my Garden Fence. I really like this and hope to make another soon.



My 36 patch QAL quilt is a flimsy!

 Here are a few closeups...

I paired Jane Sassaman FQ with solids to make the blocks.

36 patch quilt along progress

The blocks for this QAL are really coming together. This is going to be a big quilt!

Moving along on my Garden Fence quilt

Ok, the pieces are coming together on my Garden Fence QAL. I am enjoying this so much I may make it in a pink/orange/white colorway.

Angel Christmas Quilt

This is what I'm machine quilting now.  They are mostly Chrismas fabrics but in a light color way so it doesn't look like a holiday themed quilt. I don't do much machine quilting but I think that is going to change because the LA is expensive and I can't hand quilt fast enough to keep up with all of my tops.
