Sarah's Cedar Mountain

Sarah worked hard to create this stunning quilt.

It wasn't hard to decide that is needed quilted pine boughs and pinecones.

Quilt of Valor

One of the worst things I can imagine is loosing my sight. I've been thinking about how tragic it is for that to happen to our service men and women.

So with the help of some other quilters, I'm making some especially textural quilts for the visually impaired.

The quilts contain wool, Minkee, satin, chenille, and other fabrics that have a distinct feel. They will be donated to Hines Veteran's Hospital. If you would like to make blocks or donate textural fabric, contact me.

Here Come the Brides

I bought this Loralie fabric many years ago hoping I'd find a fun way to use it. Right now my 2 youngest kids are engaged. So I sprung into action and made pillowcases for the brides-to-be (so they can have sweet dreams).

I have very industrious squirrels. This one has forgotten that he can't reach the food from this angle of my squirrel-proof bird feeder. He will later remember that he can jump from a bush, embrace the cylinder (right above the wobbly platform) and munch to his heart's content.

Kay's Quilt

Kay made this large quilt as a gift for one of her adult children. She kept the squares perfect with a webbing fused to the back of the patches. It is quilted with the Popcorn pantograph.

Sandy's Baby Quilt

Sandy made this for a baby shower.

The backing is luscious chocolate colored Minkee.

Candy's Quilts

This has cute animal fabric and is a baby gift.

The richness of the red and blue batiks don't show up well in this photo.

This one is quilted with Ann Bright's "Awesome Blossom" pantograph.

Julie's Duckie

Julie is expecting her first baby soon! This one has a double polyester batting to make it an extra cushy play quilt.

Marcia's Hey Diddle Diddle

Won't this make a cute baby gift?!

Here's a close up of the adorable fabric. It is quilted with Dave Hudson's Stars.

Connie's Plaids

Connie created this cozy quilt with home spun fabrics. It is quilted with Dave Hudson's Star pantograph.

Camp Stitchee Gume

Twice a year, my mom, sisters and other carefully selected relatives participate in Camp Stitchee Gume. Pictured here are the most senior and most junior campers this winter.

It is hard to wade through the loose threads and scattered projects by the end of the week - but you can see that we get a lot accomplished.

We are especially excited by the enthusiasm (possible addiction?!) of a new daughter-in-law! She created this "Wonky Cross" to donate to a fund raiser. She also provided the cute baby.

This is a fused project I did. The pattern is from "Another by Anita".

Our group activity was to play with Texture Magic. I made this very warty frog. Go to the Superior Threads website for interesting videos. Others made purses, flower centers, and a yoke for a beach cover-up.
