CELTIC SOLSTICE


 This is a Bonnie Hunter mystery that I did years ago, and finally quilted it.  I used a wool batting because Mom wanted this for her summer cottage.  Then she decided it wasn't big enough, so it's back with me.  This is all batik fabrics, and the back is 10" squares of all the same fabrics.  It's 86 x 86.  

















QUILT OF VALOR

 This was pieced by someone and sent to me for quilting.  It's 59 x 71















BOUNCEY

 This is string piecing using Bounce dryer sheets as the base.  Some were sewn horizontal, and some vertical to create the woven effect.  There is still a little of the scent left in it.  It's 62 x 76.  I gave it to my guild charity group.









QUILT OF VALOR

This was pieced by someone else and sent to be via the national organization for quilting.  I'ts 48 x 67




 






QUILT OF VALOR

 This was sent to me from the national organization to be quilted.  It's made with 5" squares , and is 67 x 79










CHARITY

 I made this from scraps for my guild's charity group.  It's 55 x 65









CHILI PEPPER MANIA

 This was the challenge quilt for the 2022 show.  We had to use the chili fabric in some way in the quilt.  Visitors voted for the one they liked best.













WILD AND GOOSEY

 This is a Bonnie Hunter pattern that is paper pieced.  So many little pieces!  But I love using them up.  I had the grey and black solids in my stash, so didn't need to purchase anything.  Even had the backing just waiting for the right quilt.  I'ts 69 x 69

FROLIC

 This is a Bonnie Hunter mystery.  I used yardage instead of going scrappy like usual.  It's 68 x 68.  This was sold to Gloria Henderson for her 70th birthday.







ROSE ANN'S VINTAGE APPLIQUE

 Rose Ann used to own an antique shop with vintage fabrics and see bags.  She used them to applique this quilt.  I copied the size of the petals and quilted them into the blank spaces.  Also quilted lots of feather in trying to keep with the timeline of the fabrics.   It's 53 x 72
