Thanks for all your questions concerning this quilt. I saw an ad for some pre printed material in an old quilting magazine and said to myself “I can do that”. I drew my own dress (all dresses are the same pattern), cut them out of my scraps and then appliqued them on 10” squares, and then had fun just decorating them with bits of lace, ribbon, buttons, rick rack and anything else I could find. I had a ball and it was “playing paper dolls” all over again. The border in just repeated triangles of ...
Found this pattern on ebay and decided to make a quilt for my granddaughter for graduation as she loves owls. There are 25 different owl designs and just duplicate and make quilt as large as you want. Thanks for the questions as they make me feel good about learning all about quilting. Just started the last year when I retired..............Linda
well, it would be nice if I could figure out how to post these pics!!! LOL
Made these for my three daughters, 16, 18, and 22. The "BOYD" banner is my oldest daughter's new name as she was recently married. The Bright black one for my eighteen year old and the red/purple for my sixteen year old. The last one is actually Candace's work. She began this first quilt when she was 11 yrs and we never got it finished. I decided to finish it for her for Christmas as she wanted it done, but had lost interest in doing it herself. All of the blocks were finished and ...

The block of the month project may not be a challenge for most here, but it certainly was for me. I have never done paper piecing before! If learning from mistakes is the best way to learn, I should be able to teach a class by now. I decided to do the block of the month. This was my first endeavor and I rather like how the block turned out. I will post a picture of it in the appropriate forum thread.
Just thinking out loud I guess today. Not a good day as in not in a good mood. I hate being down but some days are just like that. I guess I just feel blah and it isn't even winterish here yet. For a January day and it is 40 degrees I should be jumping for joy. We have had sunny days and not too cold for this time of the year. But today I am just let down. I feel like noone is talking to me and I am all alone. Not a pity party just feeling like nothing is right today. I've been cleaning ...
2012 - A New Year, a time for reflection, a time to finish UFOs and take on new quilting challenges. I have always enjoyed sewing, arts and crafts. I started quilting somewhere around 1995 and took a few classes. It wasn't until 2011 that I came to the realization that I am no longer a sewer, artist and crafter. I am a Quilter. Since the light bulb went on, I have focused my efforts to organize, get rid of distractions (you know all the crafty stuff that you hold on to) and practice ...

Here's my pics, just finished. I'm now remembering something about doing mystery quilts. If you saw the finished quilt top, you probably wouldn't make it ! I wouldn't want to cut all these little squares !!
