Sunflower Quilt and our house

I just finished this quilt last night. The center is appliqued and the rest is an assortment of quilt blocks that I put together. I am also posting a picture of the view of our house from the opposite side of the canyon. I am going to paint it soon, so if I post it - this will make me do it!

Two more quilt pictures

I am going to have to figure out a better way to photograph my quilts. The colors don't show up very well. The colors look brown; however, they are a pretty blue, around the border...

Kate's "Quick Trip" quilt. This quilt represents her many trips.

Tim's "Bears In The Woods" quilt that I gave him for his birthday.

Naples Plein Air Workshop & New Quilt Pictures

I just got home from visiting my brother and sister-in-law in Naples, Florida. We had such a nice time and wonderful visit. While I was there, I attended a 3 day plein air oil painting workshop by Kevin Shea. I will post a couple of my practice paintings in a few days.

Today I am adding two more quilt pictures. One is the quilt that I did for my son's cat "Chairman Meow" and the other one is one that I completed while taking my first quilt class.
