I've finished up my pillow for the Pillow Talk swap! Someone needs to get ready for a rather large pillow cover... it's fit for a 24" square pillow.
I used the wonderful Joseph's Coat Quilt Along tutorial from the www.dontlooknow.typepad.com
blogged here
Only a few more to make!
I wanted to make a quilt with my hope valley for a very long time but did'nt know the rigth pattern for it. I find that the prints are tiny and I did'nt like the look of it in a large scale. When I noticed this quilt www.flickr.com/photos/39332868@N06/5772709374/in/set-7215... from Angela I thought that it would be great for Hope Valley plus I wanted to make a string quilt for some time now. So for the last weeks I have been doing a lot of cutting, sewing and tearing, SO much fun! Thanks for the idea Angela!

Victorian Pocket Spirits Felicia, Rebekah, Catherine, Meghan, and Abby. Their dresses are from the Annie Potter Presents leaflet "Victorian Darlings."
Patterns for the doll and her nightgown, camisole, and pantaloons are available free on my blog at:
An American Indian Free Spirit. Her name is Winter Dawn, and she is shown here with her faithful familiar, Wings-that-Whisper.
The dress is a very slight adaptation of this free pattern:

I used sport weight yarn and a size E hook, and eliminated one row on the yoke front and back. Plus, I flared the skirt more than the pattern called for by increasing 5sc every other row.
The pattern for the doll is available free on my blog at:

I made this block for the Portland Modern Quilt Guild's Jay McCarroll Habitat block challenge. All blocks submitted will become a chairity quilt. I was going for an atomic 50's look (at least trying to!)… an era that makes me think of my utopia-like fantasy neighborhoods where neighbors where neighborly, socialized, had BBQ's, kids rode bikes with playing cards snapped to their spokes with clothes-pins, moms wore aprons and made Jello... or maybe I'm just thinking of the Edward Scissorhand's neighborhood.
my model, having been unable to get away for our shoot the other day, swung by where i teach to say good bye and offered me this shot in the parking lot. there was no set-up, given the possible repercussions if anyone noticed, but it's a nice little hint of what could have been a very sensual shoot.
…and then they landed
