About Me

Well, I've been making patchwork quilts for over 5 years and I just can't get enough of them. I have now bought a long arm quilting machine to make those lovely designs and finish quilts professionally. I now want to offer my skills to others.

Its time for me to reduce my stock of completed quilts... Too many in the closet.

Here are 5 that I've completed in the last few months.  I wish I had room to display them all and keep them for myself but I want to make more!.

This one is called "Gear Up".  It would be Great for a boy who loves to bike and would look great on a bedroom wall.  It is 70 x 49.  Perfect for a young boy.

Its been a long time since I have blogged.  I must have made 10 quilts since and finished that many for others.  I sure love to quilt. 

I need to take some pictures so I can include all of the ones I've made. 

One of my next will be an Alaska inspired quilt.  We recently visited Anchorage and took a cruise of the inside passage.  Beautiful, majestic and breath taking.  A trip of a lifetime that I would recommend to anyone who loves nature.

Anyway, look forward to some new posts in the days to come.

I made a few children's quilts this year.  Some as gifts and some I sold to people that gave them as gifts.  I swapped out some colourful flannel panels to give them texture and interenst to young soft skin.  This one is for you Charlie.  Posted by Picasa

Wow, its been a long time since I put in a post.  Its about time too.  I've been very busy taking lessons and making baby quilts for people I work with.  Its been loads of fun and I've learned so much.

I attended a quilt retreat put on by Stacey and the girls from the Quilters Cottage in Stonewall Manitoba.  It was so much fun and the ladies I met were wonderful.  Willing to share ideas, have fun and give lots of good tips.

I also had the opportunity to take a couple of classes at the quilters cottage.  Again, I learned so much that I'm happy to say my skills have really improved.

Watch for some new pictures over the next few days.
