Great Grandma's quilt is finally finished

I'm so proud to own this quilt and especially glad that I took the time to finish it. It was hand pieced in the 1930's by Mary Elizabeth Dailey Boulton in an old Hawaiian pattern. this is my ex-husbands grandmother. The unfinished quilt top has been at my house for over 20 years. Because it is cheddar yellow/orange it was not in high demand. So now it is mine and I love it. I put a vibrant Amy Butler print on the back and had it quilted in a non-traditional way.

Pink Hippo Quilt Show

I'm excited that my quilt show opened today. It's being hosted by Thimbles and Threads Quilt Shop in Draper, Utah. Come and meet Cathie Zimmerman and her staff at the shop. The show is part of their anniversary celebration.

I hope you can make it by to see it. There are over 30 of my original designs hanging in the show. The quilts will be on display for all of March and April, 2012.

Baby Love

I've got my sample of "Baby Love" finished for Thimbles and Threads quilt shop. It's fun to make a scrappy quilt.

Sighting at the Stitching Corner

While shopping I saw one of my quilt designs hanging in the store. It is my "Holly Jolly" pattern. I loved the fabric selections. A beautiful quilt overall pieced by Susan Hyatt and quilted by Kathy Carbine. The Stitching Corner is located in Orem, Utah. The store is owned by my friend Scott Blackham.

Deck the Walls Christmas Quilt

As I make my way thru my stash of unfinished quilts, I'm proud to add this to the done pile. The pattern is from Pine Needle Designs and it is called Deck The Walls. I did add one extra white border to the quilt and scalloped that.
