The Great Pumpkin Sat on Mom's Kitchen Cabinet (a long time ago)


Dad's famous apple pie (second only to his cherry pie)
My visits with Mom and Dad were always too short. It is a distant dream remembering...

My Sewing Room


I changed my sewing room around. After the workshops at the Georgia Quilt Show, I realized that I wasn't comfortable in my room, so I raised my machine table and relocated the two utility tables to support the fabric as I send it through the machine. There is a chair waiting for you to come visit!

My Great Grandmother, Mae Stella Irvin's Quilt Top


I am looking for a background fabric for this Log Cabin quilt, so I may finish it. My Great Grandmother left us two tops, and this is the bigger one.

Nature Picture




As I was walking out of the Gwinnett Civic Center, I saw these beautiful purple "things."

Georgia Quilt Show



We started out with two plain 16 inch squares, did a whole bunch of sewing and cutting; like magic, 5 hours later, I had one finished 16 inch square (see the "flower power" picture). Okay, it probably took me 30 minutes to figure out how to manipulate the fabric, rulers and rotary cutter to make the original plain squares we started with. 
The raspberry sherbet color is fabulous, don't you think?
