Ron's Quilt

Ron had complained that he didn't have his very own quilt, so I used my Accu Quilt tumbler die cut to make this vintage-looking fabric quilt to give him as a Christmas present.
I really liked the football stitching on the quilt (thanks Quilted Works!) 

Joan's Quilt

Bruster insisted upon sitting on my lap while I sewed the binding on to this quilt I made as a Christmas present for my mother-in-law, Joan. The fabric is by Moda--Aster Manor--with brown minky fabric on the back.
I loved the quilting (done by Quilted Works)!

The Ghastlie Quilt-Completed!

The stitching was perfect for this quilt and it is all bound and ready for Halloween. When I picked it up from Quilted Works, the ladies working there told me there were several women wanting to snatch it up, because the fabric wasn't available anymore. Too bad! It's mine and I'm going to enjoy how fun it was to make and display.
The back shows off all of the fabulous Ghastlies with an edge around it all.
The Front
I just totally love the Ghastlies!

Another Objects Of Desire Quilt


I made this baby quilt today with a jelly roll and backing fabric using the quilt-as-you-sew method. The fabric is Objects of Desire (same fabric I used for Tracey's quilt) by Moda. Janice B.'s daughter, Jennifer, just had a baby girl so I'm going to give this one to her.

Halloween Crazy Quilt

I've been working on this for probably three years. Each square has sequins, embroidery, or some fancy lace. Eventually I hope to put all the squares together to make a table runner.

Laurel Burch Secret Jungle Quilt

I love Laurel Burch fabric! I also love my quilt hanger for holding up a piece of flannel so I can arrange the squares on it. It makes it so much easier than crawling around on the floor. This quilt is almost done--just need to finish the back, get it quilted and then bind it. It's pretty wild and bright, but it makes me smile when I look at the prints.

Puckered Pampered Pooch

I decided to try out the Texture Magic I had bought about a month ago, so I gathered together my Moda Pampered Pooch yardage, charm pack, ruler, marker and of course, the Texture Magic. I cut a square of the fabric and TM that was larger than the actually size I needed. I drew lines on the back of the TM, pinned it to my fabric square, and then straight stitched in back and forth. Placing the fabric TM side up, I steamed the entire square without letting the iron touch the fabric.
The end result was a puckered piece of fabric the same size as a square in my charm pack. Now I just have to figure out what to do with my little squares. Hmmm....
