Button purchase


A friend and I purchased a bunch of buttons from Craig's list. Only 53 POUNDS worth. This picture is not even half of them.

Tim's quilt




A year or so after I made my quilt, I made Tim one. I picked out the fabrics for his and put cotton on the front, with flannel in the middle and back. I used the same pattern since it was such a fun pattern. The green is the flannel on the back.

I think he's trying to tell me it;s play time.

Several years ago when I first started making quilts, I made myself one to cover up with while watching TV. We don't keep our house that warm in the winter, so I put flannel in the middle and on the back with cotton fabrics on the front. I didn't pick the colors. I didn't feel comfortable at that point putting colors together. I had a lady at a local quilt shop pick out some fabrics.

travel/duffel bag





Earlier this year I took a class at a local quilt shop and made this bag. Since then I taught my friend to make these and she has made 6 for her grandchildren for Christmas. It measures about 23 inches long and about 12/13 inches wide. I don't remember how tall it is.
