Sheila's Girls

This is a special quilt for a special friend. I had traced the hand prints of my friend's daughter and granddaughters and finally had to ask her for her hand print. I told her to ask no questions, but she would find out later. This quilt was the result. At the base of each hand print is a heart with their name and birthdate in machine embroidery. On the back, the label is my hand print. The quilt is machine applique and machine quilted. The fabrics reflects some of my friend's hobbies...fossils, collecting geckos, and her favorite colors.

This Ohio Star quilt is quilted with an Ohio Star motif. The printed fabric is of old airplanes; and one of the airplanes is one that my uncle (pictured) flew as a pilot in the US Air Force. He was so excited to receive this quilt.

Another Fons and Porter...Are you seeing a pattern here? My daughter-in-law loves the Beatles, so I knew I just had to make this one for her. I did my own color scheme. After all patterns are only suggestions, right?! It took a while, but I finally found the center panel on line. The quilt is hand quilted.
