I have been quilting since 1999 and have decided to keep an online journal of my quilts. In this way, I can document their history and preserve their memory for my family and future generations. Most of my quilts are made as gifts; and with few exceptions, I have taken pictures of my quilts with their recipient. I have also made many charity quilts for Project Linus, Wrapped in Hope and Quilts for Kids.

Please join me for my quilt parade!

I made these quilts in 2004 but didn’t give them to my grandchildren until August 2005 when I visited my DD and her family in Tennessee.   Hurricane Katrina hit a couple days after these photos were taken.  It was very windy and rainy where we were at; but it was nothing compared to New Orleans and we survived the hurricane without any problems.

Part of my trip was to include a visit to New Orleans before heading back to California.  Sadly, I never made it … Katrina made sure that.
