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.  

















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

BUTTERFLY GARDEN

 This was done as a one-block-wonder.  The original fabric is the floral in the border.  I cut out some of the flowers and appliqued them on the plain fabric in 2 corners.  It's 65 x 67.  I quilted it with a butterfly pantograph, which inspired the name.  The backing fabric is from the same line.  

                                                                        

                                    

 








ROSE ANN'S BATIKS

 Rose Ann made this from a kit, and had me quilt it for her.  She won "best use of color", which we had a good chuckle at since it was a kit!!  It's 84 x 84

SWANS AT SUNSET

 The pattern is Grassy Creek from Bonnie Hunter.  But I changed the name because I used a photo of swans at sunset to choose my colors.  I added yellow rick rack to the edge to catch the judge's eye.  It's 62 x 62












ANNE'S SILHOUETTE

 Anne made this silhouette and added some great embellishments.  She didn't want a lot of quilting in the actual silhouette, so I just added a necklace and some butterflies.  It's 17 x 24








CHARITY

 I made this from lots of my scraps for my guild's charity.  It's 42 x 54
