Works in Progress

I have been working at a few projects and here they are.  They're still in the works, but making progress.
The double wedding ring was a result of a class I took at Amazing Quilts www.amazingquiltsaz.com where I got to play for the day.  Changed the colors up a little so that I could have fun with the machine quilting.  The Irish chain quilt was a change from my original plan, too.  Instead of using shamrocks in the open spaces, I did a Celtic knot using fusible bias tape.  Still working my way out and not sure what my borders will look like.  Stay posted to see the finished results!

Snow, Rain & Wind

Hi from AZ and yes, that is what I am seeing out my window this very moment, snow, rain and wind.  I guess we are in for an accumulation of the white stuff tonight and tomorrow.  With the weather like this, it's off to my quilt room for some heavy duty quilting.  Got up early turned on some Celtic music, opened my EQ and started on a St. Patrick's Day quilt that I designed a while back. Then I broke for lunch and turned on the Riverdancing on Ice.  How fun is that.  For those of you that are experiencing cold weather, stay warm, and those of you everywhere, enjoy your day and happy quilting.

Quilters Accessories

These are some of the items that I will be sharing at www.amazingquiltsaz.com in my "Quilters Accessories" class. Some of the items use the tumbler block from AccuQuilt.  These are fun and easy to assemble. I have patterns available at my website www.quiltedinspirations.net.

Happy New Years!!!

It has been "forevers" since I have made a post due to a total hip replacement.  It was a total success, the pain is gone and I am back up running, well not literally but moving much better.  The month of Nov. was a blur trying to wrap things up knowing that I would be down for a bit.  I was blessed in that my surgeon did the anterior approach which allowed for a very quick and wonderful recovery.  I had no restrictions like that of the posterior approach which has allowed me to be back up in no time.  I am going to share some photo's of what went on before surgery, so hope you enjoy them.  The plan from here on out is to get all those idea's that ran through my head during my recovery time into actual projects, so be looking for new things to come. Meantime, have a wonderful New Year of blessings and exciting quilt adventures.

This is my "Comfort Quilt" that was presented to me at out end-of-the-year party.

My Spot in the Bloghop!

Welcome to my spot in the blog hop!!! What I would like

to share with all of you is how easy and fun it is to use 

AccuQuilt products to create beautiful quilts.

I am going to show you what I have done with

one of their fabulous dies the Arabesque #2.

My quilt is "Pour Out Your Heart" in which I
used it for the splash! 

I used it again in "Big Blue".  Great quilt for the little

guy in your family.

And then again in my Christmas runner.

Look what you can do with the tumbler block! My quilt

I am designing with this thought, is in the works and should

be out very soon.  Be checking here at my blog to see 

what the final outcome is, but meantime, create your own!

With the AccuCut products, designs are endless.  

There are kits available on my website all pre-cut,

pre-fused and ready to be put together.  How easy 

is that so go to http://www.quiltedinspirations.net, 

buy a kit and enjoy your new quilt.
Thanks so much for joining me in what I love to do!

Look What's New!!!

I just finished some things I will be sharing in my 

Calendar BOM class this Thursday.

So, I thought I would share it with all of you, too.  

Kits and patterns will be available 

on my website www.quiltedinspirations.net.

First of all I would like you to meet

Candy Cornston, my newest "Wiggly Legs"

Next is the table mat that is a BOM

This is my new shadow table runner. 

The leaves look like they have fallen on the table!

This is one of my very favorite classes to teach.

These are some stuffed pumpkins that I love to place 

around the house during the fall months.

This is a gathering of leaves with some fun shadowing

techniques that I added.

If you would like to purchase kits and patterns

to make your own fall decorations, be sure

to check out my website for details and 

ordering.  

Pour Out Your Heart

My Newest Design!!

Where do the days go?

Time can get pass you in a flash of a moment.  I have been busy with classes and designing.  Here are a few pictures of some finished products from the Châtelaine and Bow Tuck classes  and the Apple Core place mat that I gave a "woodies flavor".  I made some wine cozies for some of the holidays to sell at my up & coming show in September!  Starting to get ready for the show in between classes.  The Châtelaine's still need to have their bindings finished but you can get the idea.  This is such a fun class because the gals get to be creative designing what fits their needs and wants best. I love the ring that Suzie put on hers to hold her glasses, wish I thought of that for mine!

Just a few of the bags!

Here is the black & white bag that I made 

for myself.  I had a watch party the night 

before so I had to have a bag to match.

Visit Melissa's blog and check out these

awesome watches!

The woodies place mat. These are so much fun

to make using the "Curve Master"

Seasonal Wine Cozies!

Here are picture's of my booth at the Alpine, AZ quilt show, 

my Calendar BOM block and mat, pin and pincushion,

and the school house quilt I finished.  My newest pattern

is the "Apple Core Placemat and Coaster". 

Getting ready for several classes that I will be teaching

this week and hope to be able to share the other new

patterns I have designed.  Check my website for
