Reader's Showcase: Volume 6, Issue 4

I would like to share a couple of photos of a crazy quilted box I made for a charity auction last year. The box raised $150 for a mentoring program for Youth and Shelter Services in Ames, Iowa.

I am sending photos of a needlebook I made recently for the Reader's Showcase (sic). You may use any or all of these. The needlebook is about 7" x 7" as it is seen in the first picture. It opens up to be about 7" x 14".

A pic of my cushion cover which I have just made for my sister in Wales. It is a bit "over the top" but I like it, hope sis likes it too.

Close Up

CQ Dog Dresses. I love the Maltese breed. I have 4 of them, all girls. :-)

This is a little purse that I made. I like the way this one turned out.

This is my beaded Scorpion! Have you ever been stung by one? I have and they really hurt!

This is my first ocean block... wasn't sure if I should email you this one or not... it's quite colorful.

I would like to submit for your consideration pictures of a pocket purse I recently made for a friend. Recently, while on vacation, I was asked by a friend if I could do something with a set of pockets she had cut off her favorite blue jean dress. Being in love with Crazy quilting, I immediately took on the challenge and even posted my journey on the HGTV Quilting site and called my journey "Charlotte's Purse" . I hand dye and embellish all my laces and love using various beads, buttons and various other trims. Here are a few pictures that show the before, during and after of Charlotte's purse in the making.

This is a commissioned wall hanging that I did with an Under the Sea theme. I was commissioned to do this one after they saw my addition to the Under the Sea quiltlet I did for Leslie’s cancer ward project (see current issue for more details). Unfortunately my camera flash doesn’t do the stitching justice.

HI!! Thought i'd just share a couple of pics of two dolls I made.....more to come! These two are residing in new homes! <G> I've not shared b4...i'm trying to come out of my box, as it were!

This is a notebook cover I made as part of a group challenge. We were to work with two different stitches during each week of the challenge. The fabrics were a set of fat quarters given to me as a gift. I thought they showed off the stitches very well. All seams are done with Cam Creations silk.

I want to send to you a pictures of the original CQ block that I do and pictures of 2 sides of glasses case that I do from original block.

Here is my new christmas stocking in white.
