We do not profess to be experienced quilters, but rather a mother & daughter combo having fun being creative with our sewing machines.
 
We plan to include here on this page, photos of some of our creations with accompanying info and explanations of the photos.
 
We are also looking forward to playing with the new embroidery machine which is on its way as I type!
 

Gayle's Triple Irish Chain

Made in 2003

The Triple irish Chain is Gayle's first attempt at quilting and it turned out beautiful!  The dark background brings out the purples and prints.  The border was the most difficult as it stretches when trying to piece it onto the quilt, because of the way in which it is sewn together.

Plans are to embroider a design in the large open red spaces and perhaps a small design in the open circle of each plate.

We have just started to make an extra square of each quilt top we make.  We plan to use these in creating our own sampler quilt top.
 
We are also going to make a crazy scrap quilt as we have plenty of scraps and left-overs to incorporate into this quilt top!
 
Some of the quilt tops Lu Dawn has made are:
Nine-Patch X 2
Silouette - Family Heirloom X 1
Dresden Plate X 1
Missouri Star X 2
Double Wedding Ring X 2
Log Cabin X 10
Cathedral Windows X 1
The Card Trick - In Progress
Mom's Work - To Finish Her Oklahoma Lone Star, started years ago by my Mom, Mildred (Millie), for our brother, Wilburn Lee Sims.  In later years we asked Mom about this quilt top and she denied ever making it saying someone else did it.  I believe she ceased working on this piece when Wilburn died in 1989.
There is one point section (total of eight) left to piece together.
 
Gayle has made a few quilt tops of her own:
Nine Patch X 1
The Triple Irish Chain X 1
The Trip Around The World X 1
Susanna X 1
Spring Bouquet X 1
