Summer Veggies
Summer Veggies was inspired by fabrics found in the Keepsake Quilting catalog. As I came up with a design I incorporated more veggies, of the same fabric line, which I found at quilt shows. A different company later came out with a similar line but of a larger scale. I was happy I found the smaller ones as they were much more suited to the scale of the project they inspired and were such fun that I made four place mats to go with the runner. The yellow paths are for the sunshine every good vegetable garden needs.

Autumn Leaves
Autumn Leaves was made as a gift for an extended family Thanksgiving dinner. I like the border fabric so much I consider it one of my all time best finds.

Cardinals
The same year I made Cardinals for Christmas because the autumn leaves were so well received. Both can be used for a season rather than a day which makes them even more useful.

Golden Stars in a Winter Sky
Golden Stars in a Winter Sky was inspired by a full sized quilt pattern in Quilt magazine. The stars are made of many yellows and the blues in the background are all printed with stars. A parallel project of different design was a quilt for granddaughter Amelia and used a similar idea of yellow stars on a blue background with pictures of her family. Two more quilts are planned with these fabrics but I'm waiting for a yellow being hunted on the web.
