Quilted Art Key Chains


Leaves are such a favorite shape.
These key chains were made to offer
a small piece of Quilted Art at a very
affordable price.

Bull's Eye Update

I used an inexpensive plastic tablecloth back
to lay out the hand appliqued blocks.
It is a wonderful portable design wall.
After much time hand piecing the blocks together
and adding a flange edge and border,
it's sandwiched and ready to hand quilt.
Quilting design suggestions?

Machine Writing Label












I used some masking tape to create lines
to keep the machine writing on
this label fairly straight.
First time I've machine written
a label.

Verse Added

This verse is tiny but it's on a miniature piece.
I had to rip out and redo a few
places but now it's good.

"Choose Life" Green Amish

This fun, Amish style piece is now in my Etsy Shop.
(click on Etsy on right of page)
It's collaged batik fabrics along with a hand stamped verse
and machine quilted.

Rejoice


















I have been doing some machine "writing"
lately and have been even more inspired by
Baumcat. (She's really good.)
The "extra" space in this block afforded room
for the word, "Rejoice". The red thread
makes it subtle but fun.

Embellishment Change



These three nonmatching buttons
now embellish the new purse I posted on July 1.
