With the NC Quilt Symposium so close by, I thought I'd make up some gift baskets to use as door prizes for the guests. Naturally, I am hoping they will come visit my blog. There were a couple of retailers that graciously provided some of the goodies. If you come to Symposium, you might win …

Spring Tulip Mini Quilt
Spring's softer colors and all the flowers in bloom inspired me to get out some pretty pastels and create another mini quilt. It took only two afternoons to complete. I started with a paper pieced tulip that I did in a demo some years ago. Then I pulled some pretty spring pastels to go with …
Chain Piecing Half Square Triangles
I have been making half square triangles like a mad woman lately. I have a new pattern that I have designed and I am really excited about it. I know I have been through the process of making HSTs several times, and today will do it one last time so I can refer back to …

Table Stand White Quilt
When I get in one of my Victorian moods, it is hard to stop embellishing! The white on white table stand quilt is a good example. I kept going and going, like the you-know bunny! Pearls were added to the lace heart. If you missed part one construction and quilting, click HERE. Details were added …
Table Stand Quilt – White on White
I got a table quilt stand last year, specifically to display my Miniature Mariner's Compass. Problem though, the quilt is too small, or is it the frame is too big? Either way it isn't going to work, so I needed to make something else. I have decided to do a series of quilts for it, …
