See Susan Quilt

In addition to quilting my own projects, I am a member of the Tri-Lakes Women’s Club Stitch and Chat interest group. We meet monthly and are working on quilts for Alzheimer’s patients here in the Monument area. This talented bunch of ladies is working hard to amass quilts prior to the opening of memory care facilities here in the local area by the fall. Thought I would share some of our efforts to date in a photo show of finished and almost-finished quilts! I also wanted to give a shout-out to this talented group. Thank-you Vicki Davis, Kay Ford, Michele Hanley, Becky Hassler, Marki Morison-Gille, Deb Munsell, Kathy Murphy, Bonnie Nasser, Sandra Sciadini, Ann Sentman and Sheila Walker. Awesome work indeed!

I am Having  fun working on the flowers for my Garden of Forgetfulness quilt. They are all made from Liberty Tana Lawn prints in several shades of pink. There are a lot of pink roses in there! My finished La Pass top still needs a backing fabric, so I am working on this new project while trying to decide which fabric I will use. This quilt is from Willyne Hammerstein's book Millefiori Quilts 2 . 

After all the hand piecing, I decided to do some foundation paper piecing for my next quilt. Here is the result - Violet Craft's Elephant Abstractions with some Kaffe prints added here and there. I love the toes!

Woo hoo! this was a LOT of hand piecing.  I am remiss in my blogging. My La Pass quilt top is complete. Now I need to decide on the backing fabric and get 'er done. Here she is...
