A few years ago this fabric was floor pillows. We didn’t need the pillows any longer and they were taking up space so I removed the filling and cut off the pipping edges. The stitched squares then sat in my projects baskets for a year or more. I stitched together the 6 sides to create […]

Make Today Count
Cheerful [heart] is stitched into this yellow-green background. Decorative stitching creates a belt on her teal dress. She mades today count (5.5†x 9â€) I’m hoping to have more energy to play and create, if my nasty cold cooperates. If not, I’ll enjoy moments of fun between naps.

Floral ABCs Throw
I saw this fabric and just couldn’t cut it up. It’s great for quilt backing, but I thought it needed be the star of a whole cloth quilt. I stitched many dahlias to quilt this. I used a pink and gold floral print to bind it. The back is a plain cream cotton. This small […]
Finding Love
I see these two as heading out for their first date. Finding Love (6†x 9â€) The matching blonde hair seems a bit odd, but the colors just work.
Journal & Notebook Fun
Before the big holiday bazaar, I created 36 small journals – here they are before I inserted the paper notebooks into the covers. I enjoy using lots of different fabrics – some very new, some old but all happy. There were also larger journals. On front of each notebook or signature, I create a small […]
