Changed My Mind, 29" x 29"

Too much chaos, so I ripped the whole piece and started over.

Holly Block, 10"x12"

From the JUNIPER AND MISTLETOE, by Menaugh and Brackman, Kansas City Star Quilts. Previously published as "Festival of Trees" by Sunflower Pattern Cooperative.

This is a tough pattern to do in machine applique. All of my friends have done it needle-turn. It has been very popular in Western Washington, a land of lots of trees.

Butterfly, 20"x20"

Machine applique done in 2006. Sent to AR guild for small quilt auction in 2007. Pattern by friend of Ellie Sienkiewicz, and published in her book: Spoken Without a Word. The original block was 12". My first experience with appliqueing silk. See the dots.
