This site shows some of the quilts I have made over the past 50+ years. I love planning and sewing quilts, but am not quite so keen on quilting them, so I usually tie them, or hire someone to machine quilt them. There are many quilts I've made that I don't have pictures of, so I'm hoping if you've received one I don't show here, that you'll send me a picture of it.

Reddirt Retreat: When will the projects get done?
Last fall EveLyn Perkinds, Bobbie Holt, and myself drove up to LaSal, Ut to participate in an overnight quilting retreat. It was so fun, and we learned a lot.
Here is one of the projects almost finished. It was made from a stack of "griddle cakes" Forty 10" x 10" squares. I cut mine from my stash of purple fabric.
I've seen some of these "stack and whack" type quilts set together with narrow black sashing, which I think would have subdued this quilt a bit. It seems a little busy to me.
This will be a baby quilt. It's called "The Wave" and is also a good pattern to use up stash. I need to add one or two more columns to it.
