My husband asked for a quilt that reminded him of his grandmother. She was born in 1903 and blue was her favorite color. This pattern checked all the boxes. He loves it!

I have been saving selvages from my projects for years. I used many of them to make this quilt, but I still have a bag full. Save your selvages – they can be used. My husband said it was a kaleidoscope.

My friend Ellen wanted her shirts made into a quilt. The shirts were set with sashing between, but the course itself, in the center, was done in purple. Iconic sites along the course were appliqued along the course. See how many you can find.

I used background fabric that I owned which was outside of my comfort zone. Love the contrast against the floating pyramids.

This quilt was made for my daughter’s high school graduation. She loves cats, reading and tea, so this quilt and fabric was meant to be for her!

The designer and quilter is from Australia. She loves scrappy, bright colors, and quilts all of her quilts at home. I thought the Daisy quilt was so fun (takes lots of small pieces of fabric! Yea, I have Lots of small chunks of fabric.

Every quilt has a story. The whole time pulling out fine threads and pressing these sweet garden flowers I wondered who the original maker was and would I be able to do her work proud…

This pattern is my go-to pattern for a charity quilt. Pretty quick and easy. Collecting the black/greys in my 4 ½” scrap bin and matching it with an off white and black star fabric was a winner.

I wanted a Christmas quilt to add to my holiday decorating but I am not a Christmas green and red person. Came up with this compromise and it means a lot to me for I was able to meet the designer of the quilt Eleanor Burns in person.

This colorful quilt came to life when I wanted to do something abstract for the long arming. The circles found in the pattern design allowed me a bold modern inspiration to repeat the circles in the long-arming design. Sure made this quilt pop!
