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.

Well I think Life continues to get in the way of quilting.

I've managed to keep myself busy making baby quilts for my nephew's new addition to the family and continuing to support the Lac Du Bonnet Quilters group with their Quilts of Valor program. 

I do wish I could spend more time on the things I love.

On my last trip to Calgary to visit my very good friends I got to try my hand at some scrapbooking and I made a fun plaque for my wall.

It was lots of fun but I think I could use some practice.  It will make a good addition to my quilting room wall!!

Wow, I really was inspired by JAVA this year.  I actually made three coffee themed quilts.  One went to my nephew and his wife when they came for a visit from California.  I just had to send one back with them.

These two are very unique but I really enjoyed making both of them.




I call the one above "Coffee Black".  It is 85 x 71 inches and turned out awesome!

The one below I call "Coffee Talk".  It is 86 x 60 inches.  I loved the sayings on the blocks.  Makes me smile every time I read them.




If you are interested in any of the last 5 quilts.  They are for sale on Kijiji Winnipeg.

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
