Newest bag

Some pet screen, some fabric.... and wahlah!

This one was made for a friend who requested a bag to carry her tennis shoes to the gym.

Just for fun

Everyone needs one of these!

Sewing Room

My dear husband just relocated his desk to another room, so I've gained the whole room for myself again! Here's a 360...

Rooster Bag

Some of my favorite projects are combining unrelated items into one-of-a-kind creations. This bag started out as two placemats, some pet screen, and drapery tie-backs. This one was a special order for a client to give her mother who loves roosters.

Miss Amelia

This is Amelia!

She used to be Great Aunt Millie's wool coat. My Grandmother gave me the coat when I was younger... and I gave it back to Granny in honor of her sister when she passed away. Her stole is part of the mink collar from the coat. When my Granny passed away, "Amelia" came back to live with me.

A gift for Wentworth Bible Church in Raleigh, NC... (brother-in-law, David, is pastor/elder).

A Quilt for Stephanie

This is the quilt I made for my daughter, Stephanie... she likes pink!

Like the Turning Twenty, the fabrics for the blocks are stacked, then cut identically.

Once the individual pieces are randomly sewn together to form the block, the blocks are rotated to create the design of your choosing.

I quilted a vine design onto the purple border using hearts instead of flowers.

Jessica's Quilt

This "Turning Twenty" quilt was made especially for my daughter, Jessica. She loves colors that are 'natural'... gold, brown, green, beige... so I chose the border first, then selected colors pulled from the border design. The quilt is backed with a solid gold cotton and tied with a variegated brown wool yarn. I machine quilted a floral design into each of the large squares.
