Table top quilts

 I love small quilts. They are easy to mail, for one thing. easy to sew up and  less bulky to complete. Top one is in yellows with blue -yellow batik fabric and pearls sewn down the centre. made for my friend, Sharon, who also quilts and gardens and is a ballerina as well. I loved the brightness of the fabric. So sunny.

This table top is made in simple squares with hints of the civil war style of fabric. I added buttons to make it more rustic. Did this up for my friend, Margie, who has a wonderful decorating style. Birthdays seem to be the perfect time to grab some fabric and sew and sew and sew.....

Table Top Quilt for karen's May birthday, 2012. Fabric has been dyed with tea to give it an antique look. The pattern is one of my favourites...very simple pattern, but love it..."trip around the world" with the cross as the central figure. I was able to fit it into a large brown envelope for mailing......sent expresspost, took one day to get to White Rock. Amazing!

Robin's Quilt

This is called Boston Common. I made this in 1995 for Robin Brown when her 2nd son, Taylor, ws born. It is made of small squares, angled in rows to look as if it is a mosaic floor. Since I just reconnected with Robin, after a long while ( over 12 years), I looked up the quilt in my Photo card, and found that there was still a picture of the quilt. Amazing to look back at a quilt you made so long ago......
