Bright Stripes

RBG

And yes, the colors are this intense. 

This quilt is not for the faint of heart, 

babies love bright intense colors,

especially red at a very early age.

Black and white first, then red, 

then blue and green.

This quilt has it all, and is available.

 ~44"square, 100% cotton, polyester batting

price upon request

Sometimes, you have to celebrate your favorite team.

Peacock

This was a fun/scary quilt to make.
Not cotton, but satin.
Not batting, but flannel.

Satin is slippery, many pins needed to hold it in place while sewing,

I hope the wonderful person who commissioned it is
please with how it turned out. 

I am.

Little Sailor Blue

A quilt made for a good friend, in record time. I've always wanted to make a sailboat quilt, a little mental calculations, and this cutie is what happened. 

Glass Beads

When I started this quilt, I had no idea how it was going to look finished. I had a large bag of scraps, a lot of time, no quilts on order, and I wanted to keep my hands busy. Lots of us are like that, having to keep hands busy.

So I got to work: mixing and matching, coordinating, contrasting, texture, theme, density of color, shades.

And what I ended up with reminded me of beads my aunt and uncle brought back from Morocco 45 years ago. They were called Goulimine beads, I didn't know they were actually made in Europe, I'm sure Aunty and Unk didn't either. I still have them, and cherish them.

So when this quilt was nearing completion, I realized it reminded me of the beautiful beads.

And thus, Glass Beads was born, and finished.

It is hand quilted, queen sized, and for sale

Scrap quilt, closer: ever closer

Now to put all 90 together in a pleasing pattern, 

layer, baste, quilt, and bind. 

Any day now.

;-)

This quilt will be available for sale when finished.

Time for a theraputic scrap quilt.

 I love mixing colors, and matching them, 

straight lines aren't important. 

Adding a line of beading here and there makes for 

interesting color, texture, sparkle.

Many more scrap blocks to follow, with a quilt by and by.

Shhh! It's going to be a chuppah, it's a surprise!

The bride doesn't know it yet, but she's going to be married
under a traditional Jewish Wedding Chuppah.

I hope they had a fun and relaxing honeymoon.
