Latest Patterns

A Counted Quilts twist on an old classic Sunbonnet Sue. The pattern is for a single Sue, but it would be easy to put multiple together for a twin or full size bed. 

New Bronc Rider pattern! I recently added one more cowboy to the rodeo. Originally I had a request for a twin size Bull Rider. Then some said they wanted  a similar Barrel Rider so they could make one for a grandson and granddaughter who both ride. Then recently I had a similar request for a grandkid pair only he road Broncs not bulls. What can say I aim to please. I have also had a few people want them in a smaller size for a throw size quilt. So now all 3 patterns come in 2 sizes: Twin and Throw. Let me know if there is something else I should add to the growing Rodeo collection.

Speaking for requests, this Lystrosaurus was requested for a young dinosaur lover, who's favorite was this unlikely little guy. Do you have a kid who can name them all? What other dinosaurs would you like to see added to that collection?

Not being a coffee drinker myself I thought this an interesting suggestion, but I am always up for a challenge. Do you have someone who would love being wrapped in their coffee quilt with their hot cup of coffee?

This Traditional Nurse was made to be donated honoring all those who work so hard to keep us happy and healthy.  A great partner to the Doctor Teddy bear who was also created as a thank you from a grateful quilter.

I have a few different cat patterns, was a Cheetah was suggested a while back at a show. I finally gave it a try. It took a few tries to get it right, but I am really please with the result. This one was made in rich batiks, but I would love to try it again in softer colors for a baby's jungle room.
