My sister Marilynn, who finally finished the top of her block of the month quilt she started a couple of years ago.  Beautiful work and now we are waiting for the finish product

Paper Pieced Pineapple Pattern

This little quilt was made by Marie Thomas,  a life-long friend of mine who I have known since we were in the first grade.  She's  been quilting for the last two years and I have been quilting since 1983. Finally I convinced her to come on board and try this craft called quilting.  Showing her some of the different medthods and techniques,  she says that she loves doing paper piecing.  Now that she has learned the process this is the results of her work.  Just beautiful!

SIGNATURES

When finished, ALWAYS sign your work.  This is the back side of runner.  On the front I machine embroidered my name, date and city.  This way no one can remove your signature.

MULTI-COLORED STAR TABLE RUNNER

Table runner made of scraps and color oh my!  A quick project to use up left over fabric laying around.  Pattern found in Fons and Porter, Fall 2009 quilt magazine.

THAT BEAUTIFUL BLUE

This is a little brighter version of previous photo.  The sunshine helped to bring out the colors.  The three quilt blocks shown here were quilt guild demos which after done what do you do with them?  Started out as a table runner idea but after running across a Jinny Bryer boarder print fabric it has ended up being a wall hanging that is shown in a previous post,  The ideas just kept coming once I got started.  Of course you know that!

This ia a project that started out as quilt guild demo's and developed into a beautiful wall hanging.  Had to find something to do with all of those demo blocks and this is one of the results.  Each block in the hanging started as a demo on techniques and each month a different technique shown.  When finished I just threw them aside until I spotted one layiing on the table and thought , what do I do with this now.  Have you been there?  So when shopping one day I spotted this georgeous blue border fabric and, there you go.  Had to work with it to get the right look but you have to see it up close to check out the print.  This picture does not do anything for the print, you just have to take my word if I have to say so myself.

Jeanette's quilt

After months and months of quilting and not quilting, I can finally say that my daughter Jeanette will have a quilt from her mom. I only hope that she will like the colors.
