Made these little squares for the granddaughter's Christmas gifts.  Mom will use them for redoing their bedrooms........fits over the back of reading chairs.  Made each of these using scraps from their birthday outfits.  

Close up of the couch pillows.  I have two more to finish.  

 Couch pillows.  Used the patterns from The Raven  book.  Hand applique and quilted on my longarm.

 Oldest granddaughter's 9th birthday outfit.  She wanted a jump suit and she picked out the fabric from the Connecting Threads website.  She tried it on for size a couple weeks ago.  I told her that she needs to forget about it for now so it will be surprise on her birthday.  Saw her a few days later and she said "Grammy, I tried very hard to forget about it but I thought about it all night long."
McCall's pattern M7459.........very easy to make.  

Always need to have a hand applique project to work on while I watch movies.  Making 4 different Raven Squares for living room couch pillows.  Using the book The Raven by Blackbird Designs.  Using my longarm to quilt the block before it is sewn into a pillow cover.

Daughter picked fabrics and design for this quilt.  Wedding gift for her friend.  Random placement was fun.  Lines for quilting pattern.

My first pineapple quilt.  Watched Jenny Doan, Missouri Star, demonstrate how to make this quilt.  She made it look so easy.  I bought the Pineapple Trim Tool.  It was easy and I loved using my scraps.  Went together quickly.  It looks much more complicated than it is...........

Made this quilt a few months ago and just finished the binding.  Looks a bit like Christmas.  The block is called Union Square Variation.  Found the block pattern on the Quilt Blocks Galore website........by Marcia Hohn.  Very fun to make traditional block quilts. Did an overall quilting pattern with my Innova Longarm.

Friend's granddaughter's quilt on the longarm.  So fun to do this size.  Fourth quilt made from box step pattern, gen x quilters........AnneMarie Chany.  

Quilt and doll quilt made for my friend's granddaughter, Grace.  Grace picked out the backing fabric........Forest Friends.  Pattern by AnneMarie Chany.......Box Step.  Machine pieced, quilted with Betty, my Innova Longarm Machine.

Second Granddaughter's seventh birthday outfit.  She had specific directions....doggy fabric, sleeveless, zipper in the back, legs a certain length, pockets with ribbon trim.   Found this pattern on Etsy.  Simplicity 8174 and was dated 1969.

Lollypop Trees pattern by Kim McLean.  Took 2 years to finish.  I chose this pattern because I knew it would take me a long time and I wanted hand work to take on travels...........
I used batik fabric.  Each tree had a large flower at the top.  I would choose a batik fabric and then used all the colors in that fabric to make up the rest of the square.  Finished quilt was 94" x 94".  Putting it together and making the sandwich was a struggle because of its size.  Using the longarm machine to quilt it was great.  This will be Henry's adult quilt.  I have now made an adult quilt for each grandchild.  They are stored away in gift boxes.

Quilt pattern Scrap Bag Surprise by Piece O'Cake.  I began this quilt in October, 2017.  Hand Applique........quilted half on my domestic Bernina Machine and finished it with my Innova Longarm.  

Pattern called A Quilter's Palette.  So fun to use scraps of all the colors.  Quilted on my new Innova Longarm.  So very fun.  I made two of these quilts for the twin beds in our guest room.  

My daughter's eighth graders each made a crazy patch square.  I put it together and quilted it with my new longarm........my first quilt on the longarm.  It was so very fun.

My newest addition purchased in April, 2019 from Boersma sewing center in McMinnville,  Oregon.  An Innova longarm machine on a 6 foot Dutchman mini pro table built for a smaller person.  Also, takes over another area in the house.  It is extremely fun!
