A small sample of my quilts

Yes, after two days of trying to get a slideshow of my quilts, I was successful. I'll be loading more as I get a chance to take more photos.

One quilt I would like to tell you about is the "Alex Andersons Coming Home." It is the one with the houses, stars and leaves. My friend Linda and I took the class at Alden Lane "Quilting In The Garden" in 2006. We promptly did one block of each block and then put it away.

January 2008 we decided to challenge ourselves by going over to each others house to cut out the stars one month and so on. By month five, we had the blocks finished and put the quilt together. We each put our house number on one of the houses. It is amazing how different each quilt is because of the fabric choices we chose.

This year at "Quilting In The Garden" I am going to have it displayed hanging from the trees. I can't wait to see it.
