Inside the Twister


Made from Wizard of Oz fabric in sepia tones. The blocks in this quilt are made from one piece of fabric. Each block is a kaleidoscope of equilateral triangles. It is designed to look as if the twister is in the middles of the fabric scooping up Dorothy, Toto, Miss Gulch and Professor Marvel. All materials are new and 100% cotton. I designed this quilt, made it and quilted it. It has been washed and measures 72″ x 78″.

Inside the Twister Locked and Loaded


I’m still trying to catch up from teaching all last weekend, but in between embroidering quilt labels, etc. I loaded Inside the Twister on the quilt frame. So I would quilt a row, then run to the embroidery room and check on the embroidery machine. Status: Inside the twister is quilted, waiting for binding, 3 quilt labels are done and half way through a job for my friend Jennifer.

Tomorrow I’m off to teach the Lemoyne star class at Sew E-Z in Portsmouth.

The Spiderweb Top is Done (but not quilted yet)


My Halloween Spiderweb Quilt top is together, but it is not quilted yet. Life keeps getting in the way of my quilting. It measures 88″ X 104″. I ordered some “Nevermore” by Michael Miller as a tribute to Edgar Allen Poe for the back. It required a special backing. This is my 5th spiderweb quilt. I will be teaching this in November at What’s Your Stitch N Stuff in Virginia Beach.
