Buggy Barn Cats

Jessi shows us her cat quilt. It was made in Feb of 2006 at our retreat in Altamont. I quilted it a few months later and will post a photo later.

The quilted virsion...

...and the back.

Sewing Notions - RR


This project was a round robin that began at Ruby's Inn. Kaye Evans put a group together and I signed on. We were to each make a certain number of the same block, swap them, and bring our completed quilts to Ruby's Inn to show the next year.

Apple Tree

Ok, this was made probably when Jolynn was 4ish -- probably in 1997-ish. Lorna had taught us to applique the apples with invisible thread at quilt guild. I went home determined to make a full project out of everything we "started" in quilt guild. This was the one and only quilt that ever evolved from that idea. It is a wallhanging. The apple tree pattern came out of a quilt book of which I can no longer recall the name.

Trapunto - Sharon Schamber

More memories still... This little project was my first trapunto piece made in Sharan Schamber's trapunto class several years back. It is her pattern. I do not recall the year I completed it.
