I've been quilting since October of 2010, but it was NOT my intention to become a quilter (having already too many hobbies, in my opinion) but a friend introduced me to the rotary cutter and the classic maple leaf block made with half square triangles, and I could not resist going out immediately and buying my own rotary cutter and mat and have been an avid quilter ever since!
I made this quilt for my friend's daughter who loves Vincent Van Gogh's Starry Night:
 |
| I'm delighted to see the hundreds of scrappy 2 1/2" squares, constructed of a multitude of blue hues and tones, draw the eye into the swirling pattern of stars and then focus on the large center lone star. |
And here are a few more favorites! I love the challenge of designing something unique and special for each quilt recipient.
 |
| I really love how patriotic this quilt is with the center eagle medallion, the gold flying geese, the white stars, and various sizes of flying geese that create the chevrons and star burst effect. The mitered corners were a bit challenging but worth the effort! |
This is one of
my first quilts and love the rainbow of squares and hearts! It was made for my daughter.
 |
| Evie's Quilt. This quilt was a collaboration of ideas with Evie and myself and I would have never thought to make this quilt, but I love how it turned out. I wish you could see it in person as the photo does not do it justice. The panel and fabrics are elegant with gold metallic accents and the creamy white has a shimmery finish. |
Thanks for visiting!

I've never bought a panel, although I've seen many I liked, because I didn't know what to do with one. Your panel quilt is amazing, what an inspiration !
