I don’t usually like samplers, but this one has grown on me.Good thing, since I will never make another (unless it is a row quilt).

Artist: Marian Tworek

I made this from salvaged men’s blue and white shirts with accent
triangles, It has a beachy feeling.

Purple Minkee Baby Quilt

This is the minkee quilt I gave to my baby sister for her first child.

Pink Minkee Quilt

This one I made with scraps and then sold.  Funny it ended up with my middle sister for her first girl.

First Minkee Quilt

This is the first Minkee Quilt that I made.  It started as a kit from Elaine’s Quilt Block.

I finally finished something!!!  This wall hanging is an adaptation of the skinny block of the month pattern that Square Corner quilters did on one of their sew days.   Everything is from my stash except the ribbon that I used to bind it with.

Never met a kid yet who could resist these quilts full
of different novelty fabrics! We have collected tons
of prints over the years and made many of these
happy kids twin sized quilts.

Marian’s grandmother-in-law is the model for these “Little Grandmothers” So pleasant to make and give. Marian will put hers out when she hangs her Russian Wall hanging we made together several years ago.

I gathered tons of florals from friends and family
to add to this fancy french braid, mom still has to finish hers.

This is an original design that could only have been made with the support (and glass collection) of my aunt, Susan Hacking. most of the bubbles overlap another, and i was careful to try and use glass in the ‘overlap’ area that was as close as possible to the actual color that i saw when i physically overlapped the two pieces of glass. circles are very challenging to cut and this piece looks crooked to me, but i love it anyway. it’s so soothing.

Artist: Walter and Nancy Lowry

These were my favorites of the button dolls that I made and I never kept one. Its like seeing a crazy looking old friend.

Pictures of family and friends working on the quilt… first picture has Amanda, my sweet daughter-in-law on the left and Rachel, my niece on the right.

This quilt is my first foray into serious piecing.

I wanted it to be a fancy block but I am most comfortable with thangles. I found this SPLIT NINE PATCH design in my mom’s book “501 Quilt Blocks”. It looks fancy and it uses thangles. I got pinks from Nana’s and Marian’s stashes and for Christmas, Natalie sent me pinks from her stash in Utah.

I made lots of pink and muslin thangles using a quick paper method. I love thangles!! Then I cut them apart and ironed them all. Next for me it was just like a puzzle, with everything going together neatly. I had fun using all these different shades of pinks. I always make lots of extras. This way, I have enough to make sure all the colors are good and I give the leftovers to my mom or sister to make charity quilts or baby quilts. (plus it’s a reward to them for helping me so much) This quilt was tied by the Damascus Ward Relief Society of the LDS Church. Thanks Ladies!

I gave this one to my dear friend Belle Wilcox.
