Victorian Roses, Old Lace & Dolls


I love this fabric I got from Daisy Kingdom
a few years back. I hated it when they closed.
You could really lose yourself in there, especially
on the sale floor where they sold 3 yd pieces.
The lace is about 100 years old, hand crocheted
Amazingly, I still have enough for another quilt.
The faces didn't work out as well as I had hoped...
should have tea stained them maybe but I'm
happy with it.

Trees w/Busy Squirrels


This is an easy pattern I did in 2001-2.
Seemed more appropriate with the new
house.
Made a few smaller ones, minus the trees
for charity.

Vibrant Colors Dinosaur Quilt

Finally finished one in Sept '08. It was for my grandson and as a secret between him and me, I put a secret pocket on the back of it.

Your Ice Cream is Melting!!

Idea came from a 2 " 1920s ad for old drugstore/soda fountain. Full size quilt was layered by colors then machine appliqued.
