I knit this scarf using the same pattern as for this one I knit earlier this year.  The pattern is Nurmilintu by Heidi Alander.  This time the yarn is Manos del Uruguay Alegría in colorway Macachines. It measures 79 in across the longest border and 19 in at the widest point.

Pears Still Life

This small quilt is the result of an online quilt class I recently enrolled in (Translate Photos Into Fabric Art by Leni Levenson Wiener at iquilt.com).  It is machine appliqued and quilted.  The small quilt measures 9 in X 12.5 in.  I have mailed it to a friend who admired it.

Latest Child's Crazy Quilt

Recently finished this child's crazy quilt.  It is machine pieced using scrap fabrics.  It is machine quilted.  The quilt measures approx 40 in X 44 in.  No one particular in mind but thinking I may give it to a colleague for her grand-daughter who is just over a year old.  This first photo shows the entire quilt.
 These next three show details.  There is much for a child to find.  Colors (red, green, etc), shapes (strips, dots), things (sail boat, girl, Minnie mouse).
 In this one -- peacock feather, sailboat, horse, dogs.
 In this one -- owls, horses, angle, razorback.
