2016 FAVORITES

It was tough to pick out favorite things I made in 2016...

cause I pretty much like everything I make...

But here goes...

Halloween quilt using Riley Blake fabrics...need to quilt this one

 I gotta get my Ghastlie on all year long.  This top needs quilted.

A Ghastlies Supertote...one of my all time favorite bags.

and a Ghastlie "Ring of Coffins" pillow

Keeping in the Halloween Spirit...I finally finished this one 

after about five years of procrastinating!

I always enjoy making zippy pouches.

I pulled out all the Ghastlie stops using up

some of my cherished, 1st year of Ghastlies fabric stash

to make this for a holiday gift.

Kathy Guenther, my BFF and knitting menor 

is an excellent knitter and this bag...

had to be hers!

Llama love here...

I made several of these pouches using my Mom's 

embroidered dresser scarves and my scraps.

They were gifted to Mom's granddaughters for Christmas.

I did finish a couple quilts in 2016 that I adore.

This is called "Catching a Cold" because I pieced it in 2015 

when I had a horrible cold.

I used 5 packs of Christmas/Winter Charms for the front 

and 2 1/2 Layer cakes of the same fabrics for the back.

Michelle Mayton, longarmer did an all over 

snowflake design!

I finished the Metro Rings quilt. Michelle Mayton 

did a fabulous job keeping this very modern. 

Charley Harper fabric "flew into my sewing room" sew

I made a fabric covered journal for my 2017 year of projects

I started the Splendid Sampler but got bored very quickly.  

I made about 11 blocks using this fabric...

which is where the favorite comes in.

I may do a few more this year and make a small wall hanging.

I started working on some Charley Harper wall hangings 

for a one-girl quilt show (me) in November.

More on that later!

A bedside pocket organizer and pillow case for my niece.  

Luv the faerie fabric that was in my stash since 2006!

I am excited to get going on some new projects.

 What's on your horizon!?
