For The Happy Couple!


I am so looking forward to this wedding!
Our best-man's daughters is having a winter 
wonderland wedding this December. 
In a lovely seaside Victorian B & B.



 This was the shower gift given over the weekend.
The center of each star is the same fabric as the border.
It is the stack and whack technique.


I tried different photos settings and many photos
 did not turn out well. What a bummer.
The background is a deep dark black.

A Gift From The Heart!

Eleanor is a long time friend. 
Along with being one of the most giving persons I know!




It did not surprise me that she wanted to donate this quilt to raise money to benefit various ministries though her church.



The quilt is so.... beautiful with rich colors!




I quilted this freehand with swirling feathers.
 Measures 72 x 104 




I am sure this quilt and the proceeds will benefit many. 
It is a 
"Gift From The Heart"

A Distraction!


Had some shelve liner and wonderful fall 
fabric that I didn't want to cut.




Pinned the liner on the longarm, laid fabric on top and quilted a design that I wanted to try.




A few minutes later I had a slip-proof floor runner.
Then added binding with a domestic machine.






Feeling overloaded with commitments and obligations 
I now and then need 
a quick-little distractions! 

Do you have little distractions that help clear the mind?
