Greta's blanket
I made a blanket for my mom for Christmas and had some scraps that I just loved. So, I made this blanket for my niece Greta. I really like how it turned out. And she loves it too. She is so cute.
Buggy Barn Folk Art Flowers
Our bedspread
I had made quilts for all of the kids beds and baby blankets for the girls. So I finally found a pattern that I liked for our bed. I tried to do it without the pattern, but it turns out that the pattern has a lot of tips and tricks to make it go faster. I really wish I had just bought the pattern. Oh well, I guess I leaned my lesson.

Ellie's LadyBugs
Ellie's Run Around Town Quilts
Abby's quilt for her "big girl bed"
I saw something like this in a pottery barn catalog and made my own pattern. I even made up the flowers, because I couldn't find one that I liked. This one took a lot of time and was very difficult. Because the flowers overlap seams, I had to work with the entire top when I appliqued each petal on. This was really my first attempt at applique. I like how it turned out. It really looks cute in her room.
Festival of Trees tree skirt
This was supposed to be a quick project, but I didn't have a pattern. So I made it up. It turned out a bit too short, so I had to make a "blank" as I call it. It turned out pretty good anyway though.
Thanks for drawing the corn and the wheat Tiff. You are the best! I needed some more plants to applique on to this skirt, and since I don't draw. I asked Tiff to draw these for me. they turned out really cute. Thanks again.
