Blue stars

Hello there - Janine here, with items from my 'blue' phase.  Okay, it was only two quilts long, but it was definitely blue!







The block is a variation of one called 'Land of Nod' from the book 'Scraps, Blocks & Quilts' by Judy Martin.  All the blocks are the same pattern, but with varying patterned prints, which makes them all look different!

Cross-Stitched and Quilted Wall Hanging

I moved to Virginia a month ago and now all I do all day is quilt or sew.  I stitched this picture several years ago but finally got around to putting a border on it.

Halloween

Here is a Halloween table topper.  The center block is appliqued and embroidered and the borders are added like a pineapple block.  I quilted big spider webs all over it with silver metallic thread but you can't see it in the picture.
