UFO's (Un-Finished Objects)These are projects that at some point I thought was a great idea, but for some reason or another I just haven't finished or maybe just needs some quilting. There are still some pretty pictures that you might enjoy. |

This is a little wallhanging that I just need to finish the hand quilting on. Started 2007, hopefully will finish before the quilt show in 2009! | |

Haven't got a name for this one yet. It was inspired by a quilt that I remember seeing at Grandma Scarlett when we visited, but was made by one of the Grandma Hatties (Both Great-grandmothers were named Hattie, and both quilted!! I'm pretty sure it was GGma Marsh though). Anyway, I saw two different quilts that were similar to my memory, one an antique top, the other a quilt hanging at Festival. This is the quilt that I developed and pieced in Feb-Mar 2007. Not quilted yet. | |

Savannah Stars - Started
this one at the "Chillin Out" retreat hosted by the Cotton Patch of Tulsa
- Jan 2001. This had about 40 different fabrics. This top is ready
to be quilted. [ha - get in line!]. Designed by Cynthia Regone. Machine pieced by Betty Baker - 2001 (not quilted yet). |

NEW! 2002 This
Flower Garden variation is ready to quilted. All of the flower
petals, stems and leaves are appliquéd with a hand button-hole
stitch.
This one is even basted, and ready to go! (really is hard to get excited about sitting under a quilt when it's been a hundred degrees outside)! Jul 2004 - OK, it's not new anymore! Still not quilted! |

This "Pinwheel" variation is a colorful play with fabric. The Pinwheels are actually 'flaps' and attached through the seam allowances. This baby sized top is going to some lucky new niece or nephew! Not quilted yet. | |
|
|
This traditional pattern, "Pineapple",
is a string-pieced style quilt. The reds and whites are 'scrappy'
with only the corners using the same fabrics. This one could use a
few more blocks, and is not quilted yet.
3/2007 - Finished putting blocks together - NEW Pictures |

This is the one I am working on
now. It's to be a KING sized quilt for Rachael, who is getting
married this August (2001). I have promised to have the top done by
the wedding date. The fabrics are the same colors as in Savannah
Stars, only there are over 75 different fabrics. A king sized quilt
takes 199 of the melons [or footballs]. [5/2001-Those are
all pieced and I'm in process of sewing two melons to X piece].
Jan 2005 - Still not finished piecing, BUT I did take a class from Shar Jorgensen to figure out why I'm having problems finishing it. Seems I'm using "crow bars" (as Shar called my yellow headed pins) to pin those intersections. She gave me some fine point pins, and all of a sudden the intersections work! No more excuses!! |

I got sidetracked by the wedding (Aug 2001) and felt the need to finish this one up. This is War and Pieces (See "Civil War Women" by Barbara Brackman). Borders are done, just need to finish assembling the top. Oh, and quilt it! | |
