How about a glimpse of another of my older quilts. One of my favorite patterns is the Four Patch Posey by Mary Lou Hollenbeck. I have made this pattern many times with different settings and twist. I just love it! You can change that boring or wild fabric into a beautiful kaleidoscope of beauty. Here is a link to the pattern:

Some - or should I say most of the following quilts are made from home dec fabrics. Their is a great deal of home dec fabric that is light weight and the large designs are great to slice up.
This is another home dec fabric. I just loved the colors and the large florals make this pattern wonderfully! |
This quilt is machine embroidered and the dark squares in the border are the 4 patch posey blocks. The corner stones are also 4 patch posies! |
Feather All Around a gift for my husband. Made from a very soft home dec fabric - it was almost like flannel. |
This is a shop sample that I made right after meeting Mary Lou. |
This is also a home dec fabric - polished cotton. The butterflies were posie blocks and a pattern from Jane Sassaman. |
I have several more of this quilt in the process stage! Don't want to really call them UFOs but I guess that is really what they are. I love cutting the blocks and playing with them before I sew them together. I just have to get by butt in gear and make them into a top!
