Machine pieced. Long arm quilted by Sue DiVarco. I took Pam Buda’s class in August 2018 and decided to make 1/2 of her big quilt. Pam’s technique of “make it larger and cut it down” is wonderful along with using starch to stiffen the fabrics. Precision can be fun! Design Source – Pam Buda pattern.

Mini Northern LightsMartha Ross-Mockaitis
Machine pieced and quilted. A guild member gave me a shoebox of 1 1/2″ strips her mother had cut. What fun! That mom had a great eye for color, to my benefit. Design Source – Pattern “Mini Northern Lights” by JayBird Quilts.

Christmas StarsMartha Ross-Mockaitis
Piecing, machine quilted by Windy City Quilting (Sally Evanshank). Organizing the fabrics was the challenge. I really like the log cabin piecing so, once arranged, the piecing went quickly.
True Lover’s KnotMartha Ross-Mockaitis
Piecing, machine quilted at home. A fun challenge to use Karen Comb’s fabric to show motion. I’m interested in how viewers see & move through a design.
Night SkyMartha Ross-Mockaitis
Machine pieced and quilted. This came out of a class and I love making this pattern! I love the crisp edges and how they meet in a geometric star. I thank Sue DiVarco for her beautiful machine quilting!

Kokopelli’s SongMartha Ross-Mockaitis
Applique, pieced, quilted. I saw his kit while exploring beautiful New Mexico. This wall hanging will remind me of that trip and the wonderful Native American Art work we saw.
