Wall Flowers

Wall Flowers would look great on the wall of a nursery.  This is a machine applique piece onto an extra large Ohio Star background.

Delft Dots

I love combining all my favorite things in one complete picture, literally.  This is the latest wall-hanging I made.  The flowers and stems are machine applique.  The flower dots are two and three layers.  When I finished I realized that it wasn't quite right, so I got out my watercolors.  I concentrated on the stems and centers of the flower.  I also left the leaves unattached and curved them to add a dimensional effect. I love the look and can't wait to try applique and painting again!

More to Come

I am sooooo excited to be purchasing an embroidery machine with the tax return this year.  I have already started cutting fabric and making napkins and place mats.  I can't wait to get started.  It seems like things are finally starting to come together.  Now the test is going to be to maintain the momentum without burn out.  I look forward to more Blogging, more Etsy, more Craftsy and lots of creative fun!!

Table Topper for Christmas

I made a matching table topper for Christmas.  I plan to make stockings, but i need a break from this fabric for a minute.  Besides, Halloween is soon and I need to start making a costume or two for Kristin. Pattern Available soon,

Purple Baby Churn Dash

I made this quilt for my cousins baby girl.  I should get it in the mail before the baby comes.  (Sorry, Thea)  I used a Churn Dash Variation.  One of my first quilts I tried to make 10 years ago was this pattern.  I sure have learned alot since then.  I really think this baby quilt turned out beautifully!

Christmas is in the Air

I know fall is coming up next, but I have had soo much fun creating patterns for and making Christmas Decor.  So far I have made (and written the patterns for) a Tree Skirt and  a Table Topper.  Still to come are three Stockings and possibly some Ornaments or Tree Topper Star.  I haven't quite decided yet.  I am very glad I am getting this stuff made now instead of waiting until Christmas when I would feel rushed.  This gives me enough time to start on Halloween costumes and Christmas Presents.
