Charity Quilt Blocks

At the last modern quilt guild meeting, we did a lot of talking about "wonky log cabins."  When Jon from the quilt guild asked for black, white, red blocks for a charity quilt, I knew I had to try it.

His quilt is going to be titled "Coming Out."  So, a quite literal interpretation, I made another wonky log cabin, cut it into fourths, turned it inside out, and put it back together.

I hope he likes these blocks and I hope they work into the quilt he is making.  It is my understanding the quilt will be auctioned at the Utah Aids Foundation Annual Oscar Party.

Skulls & Roses

This is a very simple two fabric quilt in a simple pattern.  I did not fussy cut the fabric because I couldn't decide if I should focus on the skulls or roses.  It ended up being a very dramatic quilt (if I may say so myself).  It was quilted by Shari Fisher.  This quilt was intended to be given away.  If I ever finish the binding on it - I will certainly give it to the intended recipient.

Mary Englebright Quilt

This is one of the first quilts I ever made.  I think Shari gave me the pattern and I believe one of her relatives quilted it for me.  My three year old daughter Gillian took the photos for me.  On this quilt, I made the back too small.  Whoever quilted it had to add a black strip of fabric to one side to make it fit the front.  Every quilt teaches a lesson.
