This one is 110″ x 110″. I posted about it as a working in progress “blue and green.”
Finished Quilt: Blue Sunshine
This one is 105 ” x 105″. I posted about it in development as the “shirt quilt.”
More William Morris (NFS)
This is a custom quilt order. I made it from a line of reproduction fabric of William Morris designs. It’s quite spectacular, don’t you think?
Queen Shirt Quilt: Finer Details
I am enjoying exploring new fabric options. My favorite is shirt-fabric. I like to go to the Salvation Army and other thrift stores to pick up these fabulous, striped fabrics and use them in new ways in my quilts. Below is a quilt in the final stages of production. This one is a queen.
Can you recognize the shirt material? Loads of FUN!

Working on a new quilt with some reproduction fabrics with blue and green colors.
Lobster Potholders
I like playing with the colors when making potholders. Lots to play with.
Each one has the lobster fabric as backing. Machine washable.
They are sold at Alexandra’s Bread on Main Street for $12 each.
Taking a Break from “The Machine”…
I’m taking a break from the quilting machine to soak up some sun in Vieques, PR. The sunsets here are *almost* as nice as seen on the Gloucester Quilter webcam.
And I’ve brought along my Again & Again beach bag ~ made in Gloucester, of course, by my friend, Frieda.
I love traveling to new places because they give me so many ideas for new quilts.
Work in Progress
Now that the holidays are over, I’ve been quilting up a storm while watching the Patriots and the Bruins games. This one is mostly olive greens and cranberry reds.

Next on Deck – January 20th “Shirt Quilt”
I have been collecting shirts at used clothing stores for a while now. I have always wanted to make a quilt from their fabrics – now I am! The colors are predominantly blue or blue stripes. I think this will make an excellent summer quilt.
Finished Quilt “Got Moose?”
This is a lap quilt. It is made for the couch. They are great for cold winter nights or for watching football.
