This one is so sweet and beautiful.
The work on it has such distinct
imagination, not to mention that
it is perfect!
I rec'd this from Linda at
allstitchedup.

Birthday Blocks




These are also paper pieced
from the quilterscache site.
This block is really a fun
one to work on!
I have another birthday block
to make for another person for
this month.

More Pink Swirls!!!!







Sweet Pink Swirls







Here is the start of the quilt I made for the Summer Quilt


for our Four Seasons Quilt Swap. It is all paper pieced using


pink and lavender pastels.


Hope someone somewhere likes it. The photo on the right is the back of the paper for any

of you out there that have not tried paper piecing. A little baseball. The Crosstown Classic
was going on during the creation of my quilt.

Round Robin quilt

This is the Round Robin quilt that i last worked on. I added the binding and then
machine quilted it. The owner lives in England.

First Post






Hello All,
Here we go! I finally made a blog for myself. I have been in some quilt swaps and one round robin.


My goal photo-wise ,that is with this post is to show you a mini quilt that I made this winter during all our lovely snow.


Notice the cute pink and brown mini with a brown back to match. I make a lot of miniatures and that is what I started out with when I started quilting. Along with Irish Chain quilts.


I am currently part of the Four Season Quilt Swap and the Spring Fling Round Robin swap.


Thanks to Toni for helping me start this wonderful new adventure!!
