Something for the Wall
Ideal for
Wedding Present
Anniversary Present
Something special for that someone special
Unless otherwise stated, all quilts are machine pieced and quilted.
"Wheel Within a
Wheel" Thought I needed some practise for the "Challenge". I really like the colours in this one and the way it took exactly 22 of each wedge.
|
"Golden Rays" 34" diameter $115.00 (Cndn) The golden rays fabric is hologram fabric.... gives a very nice "Spark" to the wallhanging as different colours reflect at different angles. |
"Starry Snowflakes" 43X39 $130.00 (Cndn) I always wanted to do these snowflakes out of an old magazine and finally did it with some more "hologram" fabric. Lots of sparkle!
|
"Double Wedding Ring" 40x40 $110.00 (Cndn) Done in Pink background with two different coloured rings. One set of rings in mostly blues and another set in mostly purple. A good Wedding or Anniversary present.
|
 "May Basket" 39x39 $110.00 (Canadian) Two shades of blue with pink contrast colour. Perhaps for the more 'traditional' couple. Hand quilted.
|
 "Log Cabin Twist" 41x41 $175.00 (Cndn) Lynn Graves in the magazine Traditional Quiltworks (issue 27) inspired this one. Paper pieced of entirely home-dyed fabrics. The colours go from yellow to green and from yellow to red. This one comes with sleeves on two sides so that you can give it a 90 degree turn when you get tired of looking at it from one angle.
|
 "North,
East, South, West. 29x29
$115.00 (Cndn) ( Original
design ) This was a "Challenge"
product. ‘’Flying Geese Block" was one of
the rules. I had fun with the concept of the four rings
running through each other. Rather than having
"interlocking" rings I made it so that the two
fabrics run together and form some kind of mixture of the
two fabrics involved.
|
 "Celtic C’s" 41" long by 31" wide $150.00 (Cndn.) The idea for this one actually came from a Norwegian sweater book. The back to back "C’s" are typical of the Telemark area. (also famous for starting the "Telemark Landing" in ski-jumping)
|
 Zulu Crowns 62"x25" Black and white (has a
white binding edge not very visible) This design is
copied from Deanna Johnson, albeit not exactly. Price
$75.00 (Cndn)
|
 Scandinavian Rose
41x41" $175.00 (Cndn)
This pattern was adapted to
quilting from a long-out-of print and forgotten book
featuring Scandinavian Art.
|
"Lillehammer" 27x27"
$100.00 (Cndn) This
was our "Challenge" for the year that the
Winter Olympics were held in Lillehammer, ....... with
all that sequin on the figure skaters costumes. You can
see it better on the bigger version (just click on
the picture)
|
 This Hour Has 22! 32" diameter. $100.00 (Cndn) This was another "Challenge" , using millenium fabrics and following the "it had to be round rule". (There are 22 (X 2) wedges to give it it's name)
|
"Chrismassy" 34" diameter $110.00 (Cndn) This one is quite green and red with some sparkling fabrics in it. Very Nice.
|
"Greenspokes" 34" diameter $110.00 (Cndn)(This one is the "opposite" of "Maroonspokes"
|
"Whitespokes" 34" diameter $110.00 (Cndn)
|
"Maroonspokes" 34" diameter $110.00 (Cndn)
|
"Paisley Wheel" 34" diameter $110.00 (Cndn) |
How about something a little bigger?
 "Twists & Turns" 66 by 50" $300.00 (Cndn) This is another variation on Bargello. Eyeballed the pattern from a picture in a magazine. When a colour string disappears behind another colour, I give it a twist so that the light and dark of the string have switched places.
|
 "Monarch
Peaks and Valleys" 50"X100" This is now hanging in one of the hallways of our local hospital. This is an example of Bargello gone mad! Couldn’t stop adding just one more row!
|
HaleBob 100x48" $300.00 (Cndn)
Another "Challenge" would you believe? Right about the time the famous Comet passed us by.
Lots of my gradated fabric for the "tails". The centre of the comets was the Challenge Fabric.
