Ruffles away...for my purse
I made this purse this weekend. It seems a little heavy with all this fabric, but I can handle it I am sure. I had a lot of great comments on this already. I took a basic purse pattern and ruffled away.
Lonnnnnggggg Table Runner for a long table.
This was fun to design and make. I thought it would be nice to make it two sided. I do have a finished picture of this somewhere....better go look for it. Found it!
Lucy's Pillow Power
I have been working on pillows for my granddaughter's day bed. I hope she loves them. The petal pillow is felt, the ruffled pillow is calico. You can make these fast and it looks like a lot of flash.
Fun Shower Curtains
Here is an example of 2 fast and fun shower curtains I made last year. The blue and brown curtain isn't finished yet in this picture. I keep saying I need to visit and get a picture. It is not an easy thing to walk around someone's house with a camera... ;-) The last curtain is something light that I thought would work in my small bathroom.
Disapearing Nine Patch
This quilt took me awhile to complete. It a generous king size quilt and is all hand quilted. It is for our son and daughter-in-law for Christmas.
Trevor's Chicago Bear's Quilt
This quilt was a two sided quilt. This is also for a Grandson whose bedroom was in the theme of Chicago Bears. I don't have a close up with the quilting but it had hand quilted yard lines and end zones. I designed it myself. My daughter in law and I picked out the colors and also did the bedding and curtains. It was lost in a fire, but all the family was safe.
Kayden's Train Quilt
This train quilt was for my grandson whose daddy works for the railroad. It was fun to make a crib size. Applique is not one of my best skills, but I was very pleased how it turned out. I love the train track border.
Mom & Dad's 50th Anniversary Quilt
I needed an idea for my parents golden anniversary. My thoughts were a gold quilt. My Mom still displays it to this day.
Evan's All-Star Quilt
I made this quilt for my grandson Evan who enjoys sports, so I thought it was fitting. I thought it had the feel of a ball diamond. He keeps it on his bed, so I think he likes it. :-)

Bear's Paw for Jacob
I enjoyed making this for my grandson Jacob. I thought he needed a "manly" quilt and the Bear Paw came to mind. He enjoys the outdoors and roughing it. This was made completely from my stash. I see him wrapped in it often to keep warm. Although he is now over 6ft tall it needs to be larger.
