Wholecloth Design Class
Started a online Wholecloth class with Adam Chenvert today. What a fun class! Learned a few new things today about mirror image, simple little things that you just think about until its put right in front of your face. Here are a few photos of my designs we are working on this week.

IRISH CHAIN
New project that I'm working on. Decided to quilt leaves on this Irish Chain quilt pieced by my friend Karen. The fabric has small flowers and leaves which is the theme for this quilt instead of traditional feathers. I draw some of the leaves on the quilt to give me a starting point, here is a photo of my drawings, kind of messy but it works for me. The free hand pattern came from Diane Phillips book.
Getting Ready For Spring
These are some of the items that I pick up this week to redesign my porch. I was so getting ready to plant a cottage flower garden paint the arbor and fence but woke up to this. SNOW! Guess I'll quilt today and save painting for another day.

SURPRISE QUILT FOR CHRIS
Just finished this quilt for my son Chris who is 38 yrs old, ( man they grow up fast ) who likes lots of lovin. He loves music, his guitar, and has a band name "Fleshpipe". I don't know what it means but it sounds cool and so does his music. I decided that he needed a quilt of his own so when he needs a hug he can wrap up in his musical quilt and say mom loves me. The quilt was fun to make and quilt. Simple quilting of loops and musical notes with piano key border. Oh yes! had to applique one of his guitars on the quilt. He has not seen the quilt yet, so will email him tonight.
Now onto another project.
