Baby Quilt

This baby quilt is for my former co-worker Rochelle. We just found out she is pregnant. So I just did this scrappy quilt for her last week. I machine quilted it using geometric shapes. I will do a gender specific quilt when the time comes. I wish her all the Best!!

Who's Turning 60??

This quilt is for my friend Sue Short she will be turn 60 next month. We went to Paris together a couple years ago. She loves anything to do with Paris or France. So I had to do this quilt since I can't be with her for this Big Birthday.

Mary T. Quilt

This quilt is for my friend Mary T. she is coming to visit me this weekend. She is like a sister to me so this quilt is for her. It is a classic 9 patch. The pattern is called patience. Which I have none!

Quilting like crazy

I Did a wizard of OZ quilt that will be auctioned off in late march. I sent it out to the quilter two weeks ago. I should get it back around February 20th. When I go for the Nascar Race. It is hard to get a good picture. When it is all done I will take a picture of the whole thing.
