This is the latest purse, it was made specifically for a gift and their favorite color is purple and lavender. I hope this works!

I spotted this purse pattern while on vacation this past summer in Mankato Minn. I gave it a Western or Cowgirl flair with this fabric. It is loaded with pockets and a large front pocket with the slanted cover. The interior is made to hold a tablet along with ample room.
I thought a boy needed a birthday quilt!  He has a new bedroom and I heard him mention he wanted to paint it lime green and grey.  After a long search I am hoping this is what he had in mind. Happy Birthday Thomas!  I hope you like it. I found these fabrics, with help from Connie at the Busy Thimble Quilt Shop in Bowling Green OH.

Star Quilt

I just finished this black and red quilt. Can you believe I made it for myself?  This quilt will go in a spare bedroom on a double bed.  I did an online star block of the month quilt. I tried a new method of quilting as you go so this was a test quilt for me. Thanks to Diana Trost and her great class I took at Sonflower Quilts in Sylvania, OH. Hopefully I get better, I did LEARN what not to do. ;-)  The next quilt is already cut out!

Purse for Fall

It seems I am having an affair with the color salmon lately.  This purse is a version of one posted earlier this year which was done in pinks.  It has brown accents with my lovely salmon color.  I know, I know...I am showing off my blue ribbon from the Fulton County Ohio Fair.  Thanks for looking.

Sydney's long awaited Baby Quilt

This quilt was for Sydney, my granddaughter. It was a little late in coming, but we didn't have a lot of time before she was born to get a quilt made.  I saved it for the fair and glad I did! I won a blue ribbon in the Fulton County Fair. I hope she loves it.

Valentine Runner

I made this table runner for Valentines Day. If you look closely you will see the red ribbon...which at first I  thought why not a blue ribbon.  But now I know...the ribbon matches the runner. At least it did get a ribbon, from the Fulton County Ohio Fair.
