In Progress

Tablerunner. The pattern is free at connectingthreads.com. It just needs quilting on the border and binding (peach color fabric). Started last December.

Blocks for a Pennsylvania Dutch Folk Art Quilt from the book The American Quilt Story, The How To And Heritage Of  A Craft Tradition. I've been handpiecing these with leftover Dear Jane fabrics. The are 13 1/2" inches, and will alternate on point with appliqued blocks. It is a long term project.

Heart And Home blocks made at the beginning of 1996 by the members of my quilting group in Barksdale. Blocks from Louise Bagby, Cathy Higginbottom, Lisa Eddy, Tiia Bullen, Paula Davis, Helen Ackerman and Theresa Wade. I need one more to make it into a large wallhanging. I'm still not sure what sashing or borders it will have. Phoebe had to get in the picture to fill in the blank.

Blocks for another sampler. I need to make one more to have enough for a wallhanging. These were made at the beginning of 1997. I do have a plan for the layout. If you want to see it, click on the picture of the blocks.

Chimney Sweep. I started hand quilting this one in November. The top had been started in the summer of 1997. Machine pieced, from Marsha McCloskey's Quilt Classic Quilts. Queen size, 85" x 85".

The latest project, only in digitized form. I got several siggies from the members of DJRetreats list. This is what I plan to do with them. I don't know how I will set them together yet.

Hunter Star. Paper pieced project I started just a few days ago. This pattern had always appealed to me. The blocks are 8" finished. I am using scraps from all the previous quilts. I have no idea how big it will end up being, I'll keep going till I run out of scraps.
