Naomi's Cut-Up 9-Patch



We did this quilt pattern in the Ramona night class. Naomi wanted either hearts or roses for this quilt. Lots of blues and purples. I chose Georgette Dell'Orco's design called Heart Flowing of Quilter's Niche.

Muted Jewels for Leane



This is Leane's second quilt. It was flat and square and a dream to quilt. I think she did a great job on this quilt. I used Intelligent Quilting's Whoopsy Daisy digitized design. The pieced outer border is a freehand design that I learned from Carla Barrett called circle-hook-fern. It is a graceful pattern that looks great in 2 inch borders or sashings.


Mary's Batik Leaves with Seminole Border


Mary wanted a snuggle quilt for her mountain cabin. She used fall-colored batiks with a lovely seminole border on the top and soft green flannel on the back. She decided that she wanted to use wool batting. The pattern that she chose was the digitized pattern named All Leaves from Legacy Quilting.




I used Superior So Fine #447 Ivy on the top and bobbin.

My life has changed in the last couple of years - some bumps, I retired from quilting, and then I moved to Texas. I'm anxious to see what new adventures await me in the next phase of my life.
