Here are some quilt tops I will be quilting once I finish the Opus 2. They are all double or queen size. Need an Xmas gift? Let me know. I am also taking special orders for Xmas at this time.

Opus 2 fabrics

Hawaiian Quilting

This is the technique that inspired my process for the text.

Opus 2 text detail

Here's some detail showing the process for doing the Greek text. The technique is reverse applique - based loosely on a Hawaiian quilting technique:
1) The red fabric is placed behind the lighter fabric
2) For this project, I printed out the text as a pattern
3) I stitched the paper and the two layers together by machine

4) I tore away the paper patterns

5) Stitched the edges of each letter with a blind hand stitch

The Greek passage says : "All scripture is God-breathed, and it is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in rightousness"

This is the project thats taking all my time right now - a generous and fortunate commission from a friend in London for an interfaith group. This is a mock up: the central panels will contain actual Greek, Hebrew and Arabic quotations. I'm almost done with the top and will have some pics ASAP.

Here's some detail of my FIRST FINISHED QUILT. I have several quilt tops ready to be layered, quilted and bound....but this was the first one I've done start to finish.

I offerred it on E-bay but so far no buyers. Looking to sell it to a caring owner for $100 plus shipping - let me know.

It is mostly 100% cotton repurposed fabrics (with some rayon/cotton blends) and 100% cotton batting.

Approximate dimensions 78" x 82"

Quilts and more soon to appear - thanks for stopping by

Currently working on a large scale "liturgical" quilt for a client in London. Will post process and pics soon.
