Triangle Quilt

This  37" square quilt is composed of cottons.  Made using the 'sew and fold-over' method rather than piecing the triangles directly together.

Inspired by a quilt I saw on Pinterest, the triangles remind me of skaters gliding by.

Denim Falling Stars

Denim Falling Stars was created from men's jeans, using creases for inspiration.  The stars are made from circles cut from japanese commercial fabric.   It is about 18" square. 

Japanese X Plus Quilt

Designing a Japanese X Plus quilt was a great deal of fun.  I found that almost any combo of materials seemed to 'work' for me.  It reminds me a bit of the designing possibilities of the a log cabin pattern.  It is about 50" square and made of cottons or cotton-linen combos and hand quilted.
