| I made an oversized cushion for the seat of my Arts & Crafts rocking chair that belonged to my Great Aunt. A&C is my style, as you can see, and these are my living room colors (my couch is red). |
 |
| Newborn bibs and pj's for the Children's Home |
 |
| An over the chair arm organizer for a shut-in at church. |
 |
| I've had plans for a pineapple quilt for absolutely ages, and all the strips were cut. One day I just had to see how it was going to look once I started sewing it all together. This is the first block (but I will wait and work on it again in a couple of months). It's a breeze with the pineapple ruler Mom bought me ages ago. Works like a dream! |
 |
| I am working on a wall hanging for my husband that is about his tour in Viet Nam. Going to add fabric photos and his patches, etc. Should have it done by next month. |
 |
| These are the first two squares of the baby quilt I am making for a dear friend's first grandbaby, a little girl (I guess you could tell! :-) ) I am embroidering Scottish fairy tales on the blocks and then fabric painting them. Our friend (the new grandmother) is from Scotland. |
 |
| Here I am doing the fabric painting on one of the blocks. You add fabric medium to acrylic paint. |
 |
| And these beautiful spring flowers came from Trader Joe's. The bodhrain is from my trip to Ireland with Mom (as is the crystal vase and little dish in the next shot). The green vase is very Arts & Crafts! The table runner was made by me a long time ago and needs to be replaced with one of a more Arts & Crafts design with more of my lr colors....but it works for now. All this is sitting on a A&C library table that belonged to another Great Aunt. I am fortunate to have some family pieces! |
 |
| Two special Robert E. Lee prints also hang in the living room. |
