This gallery is a collection of quilts I have made that were not entered into competition or did not win prizes. Most are a combination of using a purchased pattern plus my own ideas. I find it really hard to follow any pattern through to completion. Many of these have been given away as gifts or donated as Challenge quilts.

Primitive Patches (started September 2015; finished January 2016): Love, love, love this quilt on cold winter nights. Made with quilting flannel on the front and minke on the back. The pattern is a simple disappearing 4 patch. It was quilted by Donna Reznik of Inthreadible Quilting.

Anne’s Garden (started 2015; finished 2016): This quilt is in honour of my mom. I used one of her old quilts to make the pattern and I quilted it in a simple cross hatch pattern, with meandering in the border. Anne’s Garden was raffled off to someone who subscribed to my blog. No strings attached. I appreciate the time and effort of those who read my posts.

Simple Symmetry (Started 2013; finished 2016): You may be familiar with Paula Nadelstern’s work with bi-lateral symmetrical fabrics. I started this in one of her classes and then didn’t have enough fabric to make 3 designs in any row so this project stalled. In the end I decided to make 5 rows with 2 repeats instead of 3 repeats. It doesn’t give you the visual impact but done is better than not.
