2016 is when I first started dabbling in quilting. It took me a loooonnnggg time to jump in with both feet considering I started sewing Barbie Doll clothes at age 5. I’m over 45 now. That’s all I am saying. Needless to say the first thing I decided to make my family was hot pads. […]
Mom’s Christmas 2018 My first Christmas done of the year. Yay! I love this design by Stoney Creek. I just really don’t like my project to look like everyone else’s but on this one I put all the beads, snowflakes and charms. It just makes it. I put the quilted background on it and sewed […]
When my daughter told me her best friend from school was pregnant I knew I had to do something for her. She was told just a couple years earlier that she wouldn’t be able to have children. I had just discovered Fabric.com. She has always been very much into horses; racing, barrel racing, loving, etc. […]
My husband and I got a phone call one day about 11am. It was my sister-in-law saying that she was going to have to go back into the hospital and have another brain surgery. This would have been her 2nd at this time. Windy found out she had brain cancer in June 2015. Around the […]
Boy this was a head scratcher! As soon as I saw the view of the Earth standing on the Moon I knew this was for my oldest grandson…or so I hoped. At the time he was all about stars, and planets. Learning the names and asking a lot of questions that I couldn’t answer. Before […]

I bought this material before my daughter knew what sex the baby was. I fell in love with the bees. Odd I know but I did. I found the material at Hobby Lobby in Fort Myers, Fl and went ahead and picked up the orange and white. I also picked out the pick chevron and […]
My Mom has asked me to finish a few quilts started by her grandmother (my great grandmother), her Dad’s mom. This is the first of those quilts that I worked on. I can’t tell you how nervous I was to work on this. Nearly 100 years old, some of the material had started to fray […]
Inspiration for this quilt, my grandson was all about Lion King and the Disney show The Lion Guard which was Simba’s son and his friends keeping the pride lands safe. Found this panel at Fabric.com along with the arrow minky backing. The bright colors around were all scraps that I had on hand. The pattern […]
So I have been struggling with this quilt since last July, as to how to arrange it, what block to use with, what border should I do, and how will I quilt it????? I had 5 – 7 different colors I wanted to use to really make the prints pop against the white. There were […]
