Look What You Can Make from T-Shirts


This t-shirt quilt was made for a co-worker's child. It's almost a twin-bed size

Mini Wall Photo Quilts


My mother-in-law asked me to make these two quilts. One for each of her two sons and their families. Two years later, they need to be updated!

My Biggest Fan


This quilt is for my husband made from his dad's clothes. There's no batting but it's very heavy and very warm.

A State Championship Quilt


Made for my daughter to commemorate her senior year of softball. My first t-shirt quilt.

Boo!

Here's the mini Halloween wall quilt I made a couple of years ago. It's reversible -- with 'fall' on the back.

For the Breezeway


After my hubby finished painting the exterior of our house this summer, I started sprucing up our back patio and breezeway. I made this quilt for the breezeway using what I thought was some of the ugliest fabric in my stash. It's out of the weather but gets the west sunshine in late afternoon and evening. Summer can be brutal, and I thought it would fade out pretty quickly. But it's November,still pretty, and I love it! It's nice to walk into the house each afternoon and be greeted by a quilt in the most unexpected places! I think I'll make a different one for each season and holiday.

Just for Fun!

Just for fun, I decided to set up this blog to show off my quilt creations and other projects. If I can do it, anybody can -- quilting AND blogging, that is! Enjoy the pictures.
