  • Today I am starting my first "art" quilt! Cross your fingers!

    I'm doing a wall hanging for my 16 year old daughter who is a triathlete. The "design" I created is part piecing, part applique, part fussy-cutting motifs from fabrics. . .I have NO idea if this going to turn out. I am not an artist! But I'm giving it a try. So, keep your fingers crossed...

    Hi everyone! A customer asked me to cut a set of hearts in lavender, purple, pink and red. I was skeptical of her color choices, but LOVE the end result. So festive! Rose Hall
