This is the first quilt I totally designed and created. It is called "Black and White".
It was going to be called Black and White and Red all over. But when I experimented with red as a top layer.
I did not like any of the results. This quilt uses bargello and paper piecing tecniques.
The size is 8.5" x 11". |

This is called the "Star Quilt" I started it in a Christmas craft class,
than embelished it with beads and charms. It is 12"x12". |
 |
Fish Quilt is what this is called. I got the idea from a book called Quilts with a View.
I forget the authors name right now and the book is in the other room. This quilt was created
out of fat quarters.
It was really fun to sew. |

This is a nother 8.5"x11", its called flower quilt. I got the idea from seeing ragtime quilts.
|

Turning a Corner is also 8.5"x11". This quilt is a creative interpretation of turning a corner in my life.
It is about realizing I needed help and taking steps to make my life healthier, emotionally.
This is a poor picture of a very lovely quilt. The top layer is made of a very shiney fabric and kept reflecting in the camera.
The idea for this quilt from the book Fantasy Fabrics by Bonnie Mccaffrey. |

This quilt was started in a class.
The pattern comes from a book called Log Cabin with a Twist.
This is not a good picture.

This was a very fun quilt to make. First I splattered paint on wonder under.
than using a teflon sheet I ironed on dots in matching colors. The quilt stayed tacky for several days.
The back of this quilt was also fun to make I swirled paint and than painted wonder under.
As it dried the paper backing shriveled leaving an interesting texture.
