Nathaniel: Game Boy

Nathaniel:  Game Boy
New in 2012. Grandson playing his game. This portrait actually has his real hair for eyelashes and mixed into the thread painted hair. That's a first for me!


Peach Within Reach is my newest project to hit the Quilt Show Circuit.  It has already won 2 ribbons and is heading to the Houston International Quilt Festival in October 3013.  It took me 2 years to complete the quilt top.  Its the only one I've kept track of my hours on.  456 hours.  Then Gina Parris-Perkes worked her magic with the machine quilting.  Its a beautiful project, and I hope you get a chance to see it somewhere, sometime.
