| I made this quilt while I was in Virginia last fall. It was a challenge to cut out because there are four different blocks in the quilt. My plan was to cut out the quilt and take the pieces to Virginia with me and have a project to work on while I was there for four months. I used about 20 different fabrics in each of the values: 20 darks, 20 medium, 20 tans (for the striipes) and 20 white background. Also, my almost 60 year old brain has a hard time with the math, especially when the quilt is on point (somehow the 45 degree angle makes my brain freeze up). In spite of that, I think it came out pretty. I gave it to my mom for her 90th birthday. |

Baby Quilt
Stars and Chains
More babies coming in the family means more baby quilts. This one is based on the Irish Chain with a star and a sort of nine patch variation.Saturday, January 12, 2013

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.
