Quilts, Bundles and Prizes

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Here are some Christmas Quilts that belong to my friend Shirley. She has quilted for many years and now has some featured at the Conner museum. This first one is a quilt that Shirley appliqued by guidance from her late friend Viola. It is one of the first quilts that Shirley ever made many years ago. It is showing in honor of Viola Keck who in her life did many wonderful things, from being a Wave in the military to being a charter member in the Corpus Christi Quilt Guild. I did not know her but I have heard so much about her I feel like I did know her.

This quilt above is a 3D quilt where the blocks are folded and are like prairie points etc. It is beautiful.

The snowman quilt was made by the quilting bee "Out To Lunch Bunch". Each person made a block and then I think Shirley won the quilt. I love the block at the top right where the snowman is in the Mexican hat in the sunshine. LOL That's got to be here in South Texas!

Erosion Bundle Project---Day One Dec. 1 2009

The photo above shows my Erosion bundle placed outside on a paver in my garden. It has been raining ever since I put it out. I put it on a paver so my DH can weed eat around it and I won't have to move it. Be sure to scroll down to see what I put in my erosion bundle and for the link if you want to do one too.

Above are my winnings from Dotti at Pieceful Musings. I love the fabric,felt and beaded pin. All the other things were a surprise and will be great to use on an art quilt or art doll. Thank you Dotti! I love it. I will be wearing the pin a lot and I'm sure my friends will be wanting one too!
