Darned Quilt

Just finished this wall hanging this afternoon - called Debbie's Bubbles.  I had taken a course at Quilt University with Dena Crain.  It measures 19" x 25".  It was working with gradated fabrics and adding various embellishments.  

Pansy

Pansy quilt that I completed in February of this year - it was designed from one of the pansies that decided to grow beside my walkway last summer.  It measures 20" x 24" - definitely a MUCH larger version.  I will have to take a new picture one day as this one is slightly tilted...

TAST Week 12

Week 12 - Barred Chain & Alternating Barred Chain

This week on Take A Stitch Tuesday, the challenge was the Barred Chain and Alternating Barred Chain.  Bit tricky, having to remember to make sure the thread was facing the correct direction - one day I will get used to the hoop.

P52 - Week 11 - "Eyes" of March

Today is St. Patrick's Day and I am in a curling bonspiel.  For the game this morning we wore these shamrocks and the colour green - and we won that game - must be lucky shamrocks!  It is a beautiful day outside and the snow is almost gone.  This is my photo for this week's challenge.

Week 11 - Eyes of March

This is my first entry into this challenge - still trying to catch up on the other weeks.

P52 - Week 10 - Be Still

A few Sundays ago I was out walking on the frozen lake near my home - it was a beautiful still day out, no wind,  and I just walked for a few hours admiring the size and colour of the ice ridges that had formed.  It is too bad that I did not have someone with me to photograph to see the size.  Warm weather has arrived and these ridges are no longer still - but moving and shifting as the lake starts to thaw.

Week 10 - Be Still

P52 - Week 7 - True Love

I made this fabric postcard for my husband and mailed it to his business postbox.  So that when he went to get his business mail - among all those flyers and bills he found this to show him that he was still well loved and thought of.  It brightened up his day...

Week 7 - True Love

P52 - Week 5 - Shadows

Walking one beautiful Sunday along the frozen lake near where I live.  I walked for a few hours admiring the size and colours of the ice ridges.  This could also have been my Self-Portrait.
