Karen's Special Comforter

We all need a little comfort from our friends and I wish my friend, Karen, much heartfelt warmth and love as her struggle with ovarian cancer calls her to new vistas of healing and transformation. You are a special woman, Karen!

What made us friends

In the long ago . . .
When we first met?

Well, I think I know!

The best in me, And the best in you . . .

Hailed each other, Because they knew

That always, and always . . .

Since life began

Our "being friends" was part of God's plan."

~Susan Polis Schutz

Peace and love to you, my friend!

Amanda's Star & Native Design Quilt

My friend, Amanda, with her star-studded quilt with native design fabric on reverse side. Amanda selected this fabric during a side trip in the summer of 2009 to Honey Fork Fabrics. The images from this quilt inspire me to modify the lyrics from Josh Groban's rendition of "Starry Night" to what you're seeing in these pictures:

Starry, starry night

Sew your palette burgundy and tan
Look out on a summer's day

With eyes that know the light in my soul

Shadows on the hills

Sketch the trees and daffodils

Catch the breeze and the summer thrills

In colours on the starry linen quilt.

All-Star Quilt

One of my beginner's quilts, this all-star quilt was so much fun to make, and the results are heavenly! A Cottage Creek Quilts design, this Stars and Shadows pattern [CCQ151] was designed by Pam Puyleart. Mary Harwood, from Always in Stitches, was my instructor for this quilt.

Sampler Quilt

In this sampler quilt, taught in a class by Patty Estadt at Always in Stitches, you'll see classic quilt blocks--flying geese, friendship star, rail fence, nine patch, nine-patch variation, square dance, and log cabin blocks.
