I love doing applique.  Cherry Blossoms under deep blue skies.  Christmas gifts for my two beautiful daughters.  

Grammie made nightgowns for Christmas Eve.  Frozen snowflakes and lady bugs.

This is the third quilt I made using AnneMarie Chany's Box Step pattern.  I really like the white sashing strips.  This is a baby quilt and doll quilt for my friend Sherry's first granddaughter.  The parents chose gray, white, coral and turquoise as their colors.  They have painted one wall of the nursery gray with white polka dots.  I think this quilt will go very well with the nursery theme.

We are giving Grandson Henry his own Curious George doll for his first birthday.  Henry and Arlo's Curious George dolls are modeling the new appliqued T shirts I made for the boys.  






Cyndi Hershey's Poinsettia Trail pattern from Fons and Porter Magazine.   I made this gift for our visiting Swedish cousins.  


I think Lisbeth liked the quilt.

This is a lap sized baby quilt.  The pattern is by Anne Marie Chaney and is called Box Step.
I made this quilt for my friend Sherry's first grandson due in December.  The mommy wanted a quilt with mint green, teal green and clay red.  Sherry picked out the fabrics.  With the left over scraps I made a doll quilt.  The doll quilt measures 18" x 21".  I think the colors are beautiful.
