More Proud Moments

My students are just fantastic! Here are the finished quilts of three of these women. First up: Bettina K. of Watkins Glen. This is her rendition of my In Baltimore Style block of the month. Featuring four cutwork designs, four flower-filled vases and a center heart wreath, Bettina hand appliqued and hand quilted her beautiful quilt. And, she designed the top appliqued band--a perfect complement to the blocks.


Here's a close-up of one of the blocks. Stunning, Bettina! Thanks for sharing!




Lori M., also from Watkins Glen, completed the Monthly Bliss 2 hand piecing series. Lori chooses beautiful fabric combinations for all her quilts. And her workmanship is meticulous. Just gorgeous, Lori!


This is Sue Y.'s rendition of Monthly Bliss 1, another hand piecing series. Sue had her quilt professionally longarmed and the designs chosen truly complemented the top.



Those of you who are long-term readers of the blog may remember other quilts from all three ladies. You can see them again by choosing the "quilting" or "students" category in the left hand column.


Thank you, Bettina, Lori and Sue for sharing your works of art. All three are in a long-term applique class with me now--and their blocks are striking. I'll share more as we go along. All these classes were held at O'Susannah's in Watkins Glen.


That's it for tonight! Thanks for tuning in. Happy Monday, everyone!


Hugs, Sharon


P.S. I am listening to Indulgence in Death by J.D. Robb. Love the entire series.
