I'm disappointed that Shutterfly has discontinued doing Share Pages.  I've been posting my newer pictures there instead of here on my Blog.  It will be a big job to post them all here since I haven't updated my Blog since 2017 - but here goes.  I'll start with some of the older ones I had posted.  

This is a little quilt I made for my niece in 2017.  She looks happy with it, doesn't she?  She's about 7 years old now.  




Here are some more older pictures that I captured.  The first one is of my Granddaughter and me.

The next few are of me over the years.
  


Here I am now - older but wiser.  Hey, I paid for all those wrinkles livin' life.
  

My wonderful great grandchildren who we have been providing day care since they were born:
 

Rick & our great granddaughter.  We get to play all day.


Here are a few more 2017 quilt finishes.  The first one is called Little Women.  I made it for a challenge the quilting group (Palo Verde Patchers) near my home issued.  We were to make a quilt about a book we enjoyed from our past.

I took a series of on-line courses for making crazy quilts.  Here is a miniature quilts I made using some of those techniques.  I made it for a nesting robing challenge (a version of a round robin, but rather than pass the quilt around to have each person add another border, you do it all yourself.  I really liked doing that process).  For the challenge the host would pull a different category we were supposed to represent each month (such as lakes, birds, butterfly, etc.)  Most of the ladies made a separate block for each category.  I put all of them into one quilt. It became quilt a challenge when they pulled the category Tea and the next one, Kitchen Utensil - but I did it.  See the tea pot with flowers in it and the strainer with flowers in it hanging from the tree?  This quilt is only 11 inches x 13 inches.
