Group Quilts

My modern quilting group created this wonky house quilt. Several of us made blocks and I created a few tree blocks to fit between the houses. I pieced the blocks together and stitched the quilt. It is backed with a small floral fabric from the giant stash of fabric for comfort quilts my quilt guild […]

Lap & Throw Quilts

I’ve been clearing space in my studio by finishing some lap and throw quilts that have been hanging around awaiting completion.

Wonky Houses

My modern quilting group is creating wonky house blocks for a charity quilt. I thought I’d share some of the blocks I’ve made. Wonky house blocks are a fun way to use scraps. I like this modern psychedelic house. I might try making a few wonky tree blocks to go with the houses.

Quilt with Prints

For months I’ve been meaning to create a little quilt with prints of my quilts. It’s a gift for my niece who turns 3 in a few weeks. She loved the actual cupcake girl quilt when she saw it earlier this year, so that print takes center stage on one side. I added two shades […]

Happy Thanks Autumn

This is the next quilt in the year of quilts for our friends. We opted to embrace autumn colors instead of a purely Thanksgiving theme. My husband found the animal panel and it was too cute to resist. The back has various prints including some owls. Happy Thanks Autumn (50” x 60”)
