Teen jelly roll

This is how my youngest son wanted his quilt done. His favorite colors and the 'hatchet man'. A logo for one of the bands he likes. I love the way it's looking!

The Legendary Buffalo Chip, Sturgis - 30th Anniversary

Giddy — Tue, 21 Aug 2012 06:16:45 GMT

I was asked to make this quilt for the Buffalo Chip for their Anniversary. I didn't get any really good pictures of it because I was behind schedule :( but it was the first time I did any kind of thread work with metallic thread :| ... I was NOT a happy camper but it turned out better than I thought it would. The center skull is about 7 different shades of metallic and rayon thread.

QOV Weekly Block Challenge

Giddy — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 10:14:37 GMT

A friend and I are starting 'Operation Valor'! It's basically to promote and inspire people to get involved in making Quilts of Valor. Some may not have time for an entire quilt so this is the solution! We will be emailing and posting on the blog ( www.operationvalor.blogspot.com ) 2 blocks a week for everyone do make and mail to me. I will put them together into QOVs to help with the major shortage they are having right now. If your interested please email your info to operationvalor1@gmail.com Thanks!

Feel the Teal

Giddy — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 02:37:52 GMT

I put this quilt together with blocks made by the Outlaw Quilters and the Feel the Teal Club. It's a co-effort fundraiser for the Teal Club and cancer awareness. We called the quilts the 'Teal Twins' but there will eventually be three of them I will finish the third in the coming months.

She's finished! I was so fortunate to have a fellow QOVer following my progress on this quilt and emailed me and offered to quilt her for me! THANK GAWDDDD!...I was truly worried, and the quilting on this quilt is just amazing! I couldn't have done it on my standard machine! Pics to follow of the quilting! It's just beautiful! the bus that it's going in is at www.servingproject.org (They are always needing donations to keep this program running! Please help if you can! It's for our hero veterans!) ;)

"Big Bertha" - Wounded Warrior Bus Quilt

Giddy — Tue, 04 Oct 2011 00:35:33 GMT

Here is the entire quilt so far. She goes in for a fitting tomorrow and I'll put the final border all the way around her in red! Then I gotta figure out how on earth I"m going to quilt a 16+ foot quilt! lol If you're interested in knowing about the Wounded Warrior Bus go to www.servingproject.org

wounded warriors bus

Giddy — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 13:25:53 GMT

I was asked to make this quilt to hang on the roof of the Wounded Warriors Bus (www.servingproject.org) and this is the grand pattern! I've started it and will post my progress! It's going to be the largest quilt I've ever done! This bus was designed and done by volunteers to take wounded warriors to and from their doctors appointments. It's a beautiful bus. And Keith, Board of Directors, met me at another fundraiser and asked if I could add a womans touch to it. After he told me a bit about the bus this is what I came up with. The purple heart in the center is designed by a friend of mine, Janette Killough.
