Baby Love BowTie Quilt

A pretty charm pack in reds and a few pastel sage green, a background of navy pindots. The tiny border are leftover scraps from making the little bow tie blocks.  What a lovely quilt!

Happy Bright Star Quilt

This quilt is made with some neutral fabric scraps and one pack of happy charms. Half square triangles, I just love them! Each square used 3 charms, and I was fortunate to have a charm pack in ordered colors to make these scrappy but matching blocks!


Sold! At St. Andrews Silent suction.

Remembering Dean, a Baby Memorial Quilt

It's always so devastating when a friend or family member loses a much anticipated baby during the pregnancy. I like to make a quilt so the mother has some tangible memento that her baby's life existed and to acknowledge the reality of the loss.

Striped Circles, a dresden plate quilt

I loved this idea of making every other dresden blade white on a white background, so the plates appear to be floating on the background.  I chose all stripes for this version, and bright colors.  I love the overall look of this one!  Quilted in a stippled free style.

Scrappy Stairs Quilt

recently, while cleaning out the sewing studio, I found a pile of blocks, about 25 of them.  So it was easy to sew up some more and complete this quilt in just a few hours!  It's a nice, scrappy quilt I like to call Waterfall, or Stairs, but I don't know if the block has another name.


Sold at St Andrews Silent auction.

Baby Bright Blocks

I had 5 leftover blocks from another (as yet unquilted) quilt, made with a set of 10" squares, following a tutorial from Missouri Star Quilts. They went together beautifully, and this baby girl quilt was made and stipple quilted.


This quilt does not yet have a home.
