Our guild challenged us to make a quilt using the color of the Year – Wander. We had to incorporate a 10 in it for our Inland Northwest Modern Quilt Guilds 10th anniversary.

A Folk Art flurry of bugs, birds and surreal flowers indicating high summer in some dream fantasy location. My first venture into wool applique and embellishment has turned out to be very addictive fun.

A folk art quilt made with flannel designed to look like felted wool. Each set of birds has its own little story with just a touch of hand embroidered embellishment.

This quilt design by Tamsin Harvey replicates the blues of Turkish tiles and crockery. Cobalt, royal, dark and light blues are all from my own hand dyed fabrics.

Falling Stars was a quilt along offered by the Modern Quilt Guild. It looked like a challenge and I really enjoyed how it went together.

My great grandma Winter made this quilt. It is pieced and quilted by hand. My guess is that she made it sometime in the 50's.

Double batting with Quilters Dream white 80/20. Quilting is computer guided, custom placed, using the Forget-Me-Knot quilting pattern set from One Song Needle Arts. Top thread is Glide Light Gray, bottom is Glide Navy.

My cousin and I wanted to do a long distance quilt together. She lives in California and I live in Spokane. We chose this pattern. It has been fun.

I saw a picture of a quilt like this, I liked it and thought it should be easy. It was only 400 half square triangles. I was wrong! Setting up the pattern frequently stymied me. I think it has been worth it though.

What does Liberty mean to me? We enjoy Liberty & Freedoms because 13 colonies joined together to fight a Tyrannical King. This quilt has eleven blocks plus two borders (13) surrounded by a swirling blue sea & bound in “blood drops.”
