 A Special Commission

                                   The Journey of Richard and Debby

 
This quilt was a special commission for some friends. It started with a rough sketch of the general idea and specified that there be certain objects incorporated in the quilt. 

The image was to have a Pink Floyd Image with the local light house, bridges and sound ferry. The sky was to be a Maxwell Parrish pink sky.  


The mountains were Mammoth with their ski lifts and two small boy and girl angels hidden in the trees.  













This shot shows the Mt Reiner and the beading and Swarovski crystals.  

A Personal Quilt

           Sea Grape Harbor 

This quilt was made for my 
Sister in Law, Wendy Rex. It was a large quilt about 4' x 4'. I created the quilt from my imagination. The sea grapes leaves were three dimensional.

Inserted on the quilt were various sea birds that were favorites of Wendy.


The beach had star fishes and various sea shells .

This image shows some of the beading that was incorporated in the quilt. Also the three dimensional sea grapes are shown in this image.  



English Paper Piecing

This is a large piece 60" x 60" inches.  Each of the pieces was wrapped around a piece of paper and secured with glue. Then the pieces were hand whipped stitched together. It took a long time to complete this project.  Almost a year,
