This quilt I made from scraps for a friend.

This quilt will be a great for a little girl.

This 3 bins in a bag project is just the thing for kids on the go. They can store their things and can grab and go quickly.

Masks for a friend's grandkids

The kids will surely like these Flames and baseball masks.

This box for storage has four pockets that circle the outside. When needed the box turns into a bag. There is a small flat zippered envelope bag for keeping small items in, on the side not shown is a vinyl window.

"Bag and Tin "
This bag was made to hold this tin. A great way to carry your project and keep it safe. I find it easy to work right out of the tin.

Calgary Stampede 2012

100 Year Celebration Quilt

1912 to 2012

Patsy S. was the 1967 Stampede Queen and she asked me to help her design and sew a block for the 100 year quilt.

We used her hat with the crown on it and her Queen's alumni pin to be the base of our design.

You were required to use the cream colour as our background and the red, green, blue, grey and yellow in your design.

We used them to hint at the Centennial maple leaf.

I entered a felted knitted purse into the knitting section of the fair and took 2nd place.
