Dakota's Quilt







Click picture
for a close up.








This beautiful quilt was made for Dakota, she is in high school and was involved
in a bad car accident. She spent a month in the hospital and we are thankful she
is recovering just fine. She has been home about a week now.

The quilt is filled with loving messages from her school mates and teachers.

I was honored to be asked to quilt this quilt for her. Marylou designed and piece the top.
Below are some detail pictures of ;

The rick rack border, which was paper pieced.

made to the quilt. Get well soon, Miss Dakota.

T-shirt dedesign & Christmas CQ

I wanted to redesign the collar of this t-shirt. I don't like things against my neck so after checking out the internet on how to do this, I dove in and here are the results.















I also shortened the shirt, no more puckers of fabric around my waist, which doesn't need any more attention. LOL














This is DD, Samantha's Christmas table runner done in Crazy Quilting. I put together the table runner and sent it around my CQ group for help in decorating the seams. It has been to Texas, California, Arizona, South Dakota and is back here in Wyoming so I can add my touches and finish it off. Last year when Samantha, Andy and the boys visited for Christmas we went to Cody, Wy. for after Christmas sales and she started getting blue, crystal and white things for a new scheme for her dining room. So this is part of that.

August Already.............

I am sitting here with the AC going, it is to hot to work outside or up in my studio (no AC up there yet......well it will most likely be a swamp cooler but what the hay, it will be cool).

So I though that since I have been a bad blogger and not posted in awhile.....
I do have an excuse if you want to hear it.....well a half way excuse....my computer is down and has been for over a month and I am using the lap top and it doesn't have my picture program on it so it is kind of a pain.....so I finally decided to bit the bullet and figure it out so I can post a picture or two. Next it is my camera, it is not well at all and unless Santa brings me another one, I don't know how much longer I can get it to work. Sigh......so those are my excuses. Oh and I must add, all my links are on the other computer, and I have not bothered to get them on here, it was only suppose to be overnight, but you know how those things work out.........I miss my computer...........................

What have I been working on. Below are a few pictures of and American Hero quilt that I quilted and is back at headquarters for binding and give out. It came with another quilt that I ended up ripping the quilting out of because it was loopy, it is now back on the longarm and being quilted.













































I am still working on my LC quilt, creating a elk center for it. I will hopefully show you that soon.

Thank you for hanging in there with me, I appreciate your comments and friendship.
