Pillow cases for charity. I have been busy trying to get some Christmas gifts done for the cancer clinic patients. Here are some of the pillow cases I have made. They all fit a standard/queen size pillow. I am making some quilts as well and hope to ge
So, what do I do in my spare time when I'm not embroidering, quilting or surfing through Cuties to see all the wonderful projects everyone is working on? I decide to insulate our garage. We had to get our garage mud-jacked so I said, "Honey, this is t
Tooth Fairy projects. I have 2 grandsons and 3 great-nieces who are at the age where their baby teeth are starting to fall out and the Tooth Fairy is coming to visit on a regular basis, so I made these bags for them. I hope the bags will help the Tooth
Dragon table topper finished! Another project bites the dust!! My cousin brought me the dragon squares in tears - she bought them off the internet described as 'embroidered' when they were just iron on. Could I please make something for their table b
Take-along Place mats. Here is my try at these place mats. They sewed up quickly and easily. I made them a little bigger than the pattern called for as I want to use them when we go camping and have enough room for plates, cups and utensils. As usual,
Yellow rubber boots and spring flowers - they say it all. We are finally getting some spring weather, although our nights are still very cold. I needed something to bring sunshine into the house and as soon as I saw this at Embroidery Library I knew I h
Another quilt done. This was supposed to go to charity, but one of my grandsons claimed it as his. The original pattern called for sewing buttons on it, but I didn't like that idea, so I embroidered them on - all 41! The large buttons are 50cm and the

I've been making another batch of pet beds for the animal shelters. Mocha found them before I got them quilted and decided to be my quality control tester. I think they pass (there are 18 beds in the pile). Next time I'm going to place a pea undernea
Birds at the Lake wall hanging. I made this last spring to put up at the cottage so the kids could identify the birds that came to visit.
2 quilts. No embroidery - other than the quilt labels - on these. Got the second one finished Christmas Eve. They are for 2 of my great-nieces. The girls are cousins and spend a lot of time together so I tried to make similar colored quilts so there w
Starry Nights quilted wall hanging. This is a panel from Northcott fabrics. I quilted the panel, then I embroidered eyelet holes to put the lights through. To hold the lights in place, I put tiny rubber "o" rings on the front and back. One of my cof
Deco Cats bed runner. I made this for my MIL for Christmas (she loved it). The designs were from Wind Bell Embroidery and stitched out perfectly. I made up the quilt design as I went, but I think it turned out OK.
I haven't been online much as I decided it was time to clean out some old boxes I had hidden away while renovating (and I'm ashamed to say how long ago that was). While cleaning, I found a couple of boxes with unfinished quilt tops - some of these were
Quilt for charity. Here' a quilt I've been working on for the past couple of weeks. I didn't have time to do any embroidery, so it's all just sewing and quilting. I am donating this to a young boy's cancer fundraiser. He has leukemia and we are h
