Photo Gallery

I am going to try an put up my own virtual photo gallery here. Not sure if it will be a fancy one, but I will work on the technical stuff later. For now I just want to put in some photos of my work for a little inspiration.

Chris Dahl's 4-patch quilt

I call this quilt “4-patch gone 9-patch” Because I created the blocks with 4-patches in 2 different colors, yellows and blues. Then joined them in the nine patch setting. The fun part was the way I added the borders so that the middle sections seem to float! Simple yet it has some impact in the final look. What do you think?

This is my very first post card. I wish I could make this into a large wall quilt. I really like the abstract look and feel to this. It was so much fun to make and mail this postcard. I have made several others since. But this has to be my favorite. If you haven’t tried fabric post cards you should.

This is a table runner I did for my husbands cousin who is a Rabbi. This was done with paper piecing. The Menorah in the center had over 100 pieces in it! Norm and his wife were thrilled that I took the time to make this for them. By the way that is a temple Menorah, not the Hanuka Menorah that you see at the holidays.

my-first-quiltThis is my very first quilt! I cut lot’s of 2.5 inch squares for this quilt. (Then I discovered strip piecing. ) I hand quilted this on a simple frame. It is a fairly large quilt for a first project. But it was the one that got me hooked on quilting and I haven’t looked back since.
