The first picture is an appliqued hearts quilt. I love doing applique. Next is an embroidery that has been framed and hangs on our bedroom wall along with a couple of other crinoline ladies. Next is a crazy patch cushion made for a raffle. Unfortunately I didn't win it back.

I love raffles for beautiful things. Hope it brought lots of money in for the cause.

Two rows of 2 inch squares, some with appliqued hearts, and a fringed border.

Beautiful work. I love your colors and designs. The pillow was exquisite! The quilt colors are right up my alley. Haven't done one of the embroidered ladies in a long time. She's lovely.
Thanks for sharing.

I admire anyone who can do applique. It's beautiful.I tried it but could not get the hang of it. Wish I could afford a class.

I fell in love at firdst sight with the heart quilt, thought the lady was charming, and then ewas knocked over with the pillows! I loved the different heart shapes, did you have a pattern for them , or draw them yourself? Would love the pattern!

I love them all so much. I love to do hand embroidery, love the hearts and flowers and am planning to take a class on how to do the elaborate crazy quilting. They are all so very pretty. Very inspiring.

Very very nice. Love all of them.

pollyjvan9 05-30-2010 03:08 PM

I love your work. The colors in your heart quilt are stunning, and I'm am going to have to try one of the fringed bindings. How did you do that?

I have to confess that this was a kit but I have used the heart shapes and embroidery designs in other things since. If you want to search for Ann Gadsby Designs (am I allowed to put a link?) you will see some lovely work with hearts and roses.

I LOVE that quilt and that pillow is beautiful, where did you get the pattern? I'd really like to try both. Thanks for sharing with the QB--this place is great-it is so addicting-I just can't get along without checking every day.

dkabasketlady 05-30-2010 08:36 PM

Gorgeous quilt, pillow and picture! You're very talented!! Too bad you didn't win the pillow back, it went very nicely with the quilt!

MegsAnn 05-30-2010 09:00 PM

Oooh love the hearts quilt.

The cushion - this is an easy way of doing crazy patch. Start in the centre with a five sided piece then starting by attaching about a 2.5 inch wide piece to one side, stitching and flipping over, work your way around adding pieces as you go. The trick is not to end up with a very long seam. Add lace, ribbon etc to catch it in the next seam, do some embroidery, beadwork etc. when finished.
