Lacy Collage Quilt


This busy quilt was made in 2010 by Pat Garrison. Embroidered and appliqued with flowers, faces, borders and words. Looks like there is some crochet and lace too. I especially like the scalloped outer edge. Some buttons, beads, charms and silk ribbon would be fun to add. Great job, Pam!

Scribble Doodle Embroidered Quilt!


I'm not fooling you (on April Fool's Day), this is an embroidered quilt
Quilt by Anna Torma. Found on flickr and Pinterest.
It's called "Just My Imagination."
I want to make something like this!

Crazy Quilt with Corner Fans


I made this crazy quilt with silk fans in the corners about 10 years ago. My Mom crocheted the little white fan in the photo below. She made it for this quilt. She also taught me how to embroider about 50 years ago, and I'm so glad she did. I love to embroider on quilts. Beads make it nice to run your hands over the surface of the quilt too. You know what I'm going to say: click here to see how to make fans.

Burgoyne Surrounded Silk Quilt


I made this silk quilt a few years ago for the AQS and the National Quilt Museum's "New Quilts from an Old Favorite" contest that featured Burgoyne Surrounded quilts.  It wasn't chosen for the book and exhibit. But I do like the 12 fan blocks and the black and red coin border.
