Putting the pieces together
Cotton fabric has a feel and a scent and a soft, comforting appeal. There's a pleasure deep down inside that is tapped and brought to life when I see, touch, purchase, cut and sew cotton fabric together. Making quilts is just the natural culmination of this sensory process. Quilts, by their nature, put an aspect of calm into the heart, home and soul of anyone who owns one. Those who become the curators of a quilt collection are the luckiest...and most serene, I say.
I have many sizes of random patchwork quilts:
The Li'l Guy (baby quilt) 21" X 41"
Wall hangings 41" X 41" and 54" X 54"
Cot 41" X 81"
Lap 54" X 81"
Twin 63" X 90"
Double/Full (also called Picnic) 81" X 81"
Queen 93" X 93"
King 93" X 106"
California King 103" X 118"
There are several color-schemes:
Classic Americana (bright, primary colors)
Warm Earthtone (colors of Autumn)
Cottage Chic (florals, stripes, polkadots)
Wedding Guestbook (matches the color scheme of the wedding)
Cooler Neutral (soft cool colors of winter and spring)
Funky Random (anything goes)
Spring Greens (varied shades of the green hope of theseason)
