Vicky's Heart Block

This is the latest block I have been working on. It is very pretty. It is for our Hearts RR, and belongs to Vicky in California. One person left to work on it before it returns to her owner.

Ritva's Bug Block Before and After

This is the  most recent block I have been working on. This is the block pieced by Ritva of Finland before any work had been done.
This is the block after my additions. I was the third to work on the block and added the 3d flower, spider and web, garden with butterflies, dragonfly, watering can, and two seam treatments. One more person has yet to add her magic before it flies back to Ritva.

Cassie and Thomas


I was excited to meet my son's girlfriend in from AZ. We had a nice dinner at a local Italian restaurant. Aren't they a cute couple!

Asian Blocks Update



This is the first of the finished blocks in the Asian Round Robin. This block belongs to Diane in Cananda. I was the last to work on lit and added the button cluster, two seam treatments and the feather stitch and pearl patch.  Her block is just lovely.

This is NickLee's block. I added the butterfly and ceramic coin. I embellished the geisha's fan.  I added the antique tatting in the right corner and beaded the fan. She has one last person to work on hers.

Tri-color hearts

This is my work for Wendy in my Heart Round Robin, who requested use of only three colors. Gold, white and purple.

The Cherry Fairy




This is my work on the Cherry Fairy belonging to Cathy. I think the basket of cherries turned out nice.
