Adding a whole grouping of border ideas and some animals and some cars.

It is going to have all three books in one and will be called "Hoovy TWOchy." If it gets printed on time it will be available the end of August and will give you super ideas got more fun quilts!!!

 

 

My dear friend Charlotte put together this Flower Power sample...can I use this Charlotte?

 

So what I really need is any photos you have of a Hoochy wall hanging or a Flower Power wall hanging or quilt. I know there are good ones out there and I would love to share them! 

I am self publishing this book. Hope you see what a fun method it is and leads to great quilts!!

A Beautiful Day in my Neighborhood

  Great quilts come about at Asilomar )emptyspoolsseminars.com)'

Carol from San Diego remembered that her Mother did so many things and that she said "Many hands make light work." I love this fun quilt!! Everything is great about it!! Plus it is a quilt that will remember her Mother for generations to come!

 

This quilt story means a lot to Pam Dransfelt and anyone lucky enough to see it. Her Mother did this quilt in one of my longer workshops many years ago. When she went into a care facility this quilt hung I. The wall next to her. And when she passed away last month, Pam had this story that is joyful and happy about her lovely Mother. Wonderful!!

 

Mary who has taken many classes with me did this lovely story quilt about her husband who has passed away. It is really lovely and it has what they said before they went to sleep- "Good night husband" and "Goodnight wife."

Lovely in every way.

 

I spent this past week in San Diego with three different guilds. Friendship guild chose a two day self portrait workshop and we had so much fun! The idea is "who are you that day?"

It is all about imagination and creativity. Get out of that box you are in! 😀

 

The above person is Elaine's Mother who was multi talented. Such fun!!

 

The beginning of her story after she finished her fun borders. Wouldn't you love to do a quilt about your Morher or a Grandmother? So

Much to say!

 

I loved this bulldog and his coloring of purple and turquoise! Very creative and fun!

 

This is fun and the first day it took a little while to get out of the box and the. "Joila"

She was out and creating like the wind. Unfortunately she cut her finger and had to go to emergency but she came back and was a busy bee!!

 

Ouch!!!

 

Glad she is ok and did such a good job with story and color! Fun! 

 

We did flowers in the other two guilds. Pretty fun and so Many flowers to pick from!

I am out of books but am adding three books into one. Hoochy Mama, Flower Power and all New animals and other things with this technique. The new book will be available in August and will be called "Hoochy Twochy."

Stay tuned. 😉
