Hi All! Im very excited about this one! I had a dear friend painted some colorful butterflies on my 7" white block. She used only the best - french fabric paint. It doesn't come off.

Dinosaur III
Had one last piece of dinosaur blocks. Instead of putting a log cabin around it (like I did the last time), thought I would make it just like the crazy bugs . . . . two light tones around it and brights scraps as its 3rd border.

Pink Leaves
Decided to make use of some of my pink scraps. Cut them into 4 leaves on an 8" white block.

Fairies in the Garden
Again, a friend (gosh, I'm blessed with such dear friends!) gave me this fabric that had fairies all over. It was light peach.

Hearts in Blue
This is the 'twin' to the Very Pink Hearts quilt. The hearts are made of similar fabric, except that its in blue. Made 9 heart blocks and machined zig-zag all around it. Used a strong turquoise blue as 1st sashing and a flowered blue to finish off. A bit bigger than its twin.

Teddy Bear Quilt
Had this old fabric that had teddy bear heads all over. Cut out a 5" white square and put the teddy's head in the middle. Machined a zig-zag all over it.

Very Pink Hearts
Decided to make a pink heart and a blue heart (not yet done, but soon!). Machined zig-zag all around the hearts and made it into blocks. Added some pink and yellow flowery fabric around it. Turned out ok :-)

Dinosaur I
Had this lovely dinosaur prints and decided to go with shades of lite blue & lime green around it. Made it into a log cabin block measuring about 12". Then a nice bold red sashing and finished it of with a dark blue. As it turns out - perfect! ;-)
