Paper foundation piecing, piecing and quilting by machine. A few of us in my weekly “bee” group challenged each other to make the center block. I enlarged the pattern 200% because the original was just too small! I like larger quilts so I added the borders.

Machine piecing and quilting. “Big Stitch” hand quilting. This quilt was the result of a 6 hour virtual class I took with the Modern Quilt Guild. Definitely outside my comfort zone, but I’m pleased with the result!

Paper piecing, machine piecing and applique, machine quilting. Every year Project Linus hosts a mystery quilt as a fund raiser for their organization.For $15 you receive patterns for each step via email. I’ve done these for a few years and always enjoy the end result. This quilt will be donated to Project Linus to cheer a child.

Paper pieced by machine, machine quilted – all by me. Loved learning and doing paper piecing. Love the dynamic feeling of the pattern. Karen Stone “Lady Liberty” – not a kit – everything chosen by me.

Chicago’s motto “Urbs in horto” was the inspiration for this community garden with many flowers, butterflies and a pathway. Twenty-six Chicago Modern Quilt Group (CMQG) members built 31 flowers, butterflies, sashing and binding. Quilted by Kathy DeVries. (Foundation and paper pieced, machine quilted.)

Wooden curtain rings, wooden spools, rocks, waxed linen put together with steel rings. The piece represents my constant need to make something balanced out of chaos. Thus the netted rocks at the bottom.

Green represents spring, the season for rebirth. We are reminded of how beautiful change can truly be when everything turns green and all the flowers wake up and begin to bloom. (Needle felting, snippets & long arm quilting.)
