This old outer door sat in our shed for over 35 years. When the shed roof progressed from leaking to holes Mike Adams and I replaced it and cleaned out the stuff that had been mouldering in the corners. This door (which has both screen and glass inserts) was rescued and restored to it's home

This is a reconstruction of Old Fort Parker, where in 1836 the Comanches raided, kidnapped and massacred the occupants. There were a few survivors. Cynthia Anne Parker was 9 years old when she was kidnapped. She was adopted by Comanches, raised as a Comanche and later married a warrior who became chief and she bore him 3 children. Her oldest son was Quanah Parker the last chief of the Comanches. After hearing how his mother was kidnapped and learned and adapted to live the ways of the Comanches, he was instrumental in helping his people to adapt to the Anglo ways. He is known as a great Chief of the Comanches and a Peacemaker!
This is all of it. May be you can see that this is both log cabin and hexagons. A wonderful French pattern.
I find myself again appreciating small projects to be quilted. Instant gratification. Sitting in one spot for a period. Physically undemanding. I wish I had more of them ready to go through the machine.

Log cabin on its original site that was built in 1830.
The owner told us that the builder of the house arrived here in about 1830, with a mule, a pocket knife, and seventy-five cents. The owner said he found out in his own research on the deed, which was filed in 1830, the builder paid the registrar of deeds seventy-five cents.

Enstanden ist dieses Schätzchen ca. 1995. Die Stoffe und auch die Anordnung der Blöcke hat sich unser Sohn selbst ausgesucht. Er hat ihn heute noch in seinem Bett. Leider ist das Vlies sehr dünn gewesen...und gequiltet haben wir damals noch etwas sparsam ;)) ca.2 m x 1,40 m
This log cabin is hard to see through the woods and brush, but its quite significant. Its in Missouri and is a "dog trot" design from our Kentucky and Virginia immigrants in the early 1800's. The dog trot is an open breezeway thrugh the middle of the house. The fireplace chimney is seperated from the wall. Maybe that is common for that early. The fireplace lintel stone is massive with a slight arch and it also contains engravings of crosses, but short ones. Of course its rotten inside now with no hope of saving it even though this side is not so bad. Rest has collapsed
I realized that last year I just wrapped a little christmas quilt around the base of our tree. I figured this year we needed a real skirt.
After piecing and quilting the whole thing(before binding) it was a bit scary to slice that slit and cut a square in the middle. But I think it worked out well, we'll see when we put the tree up.

Tom puts one of his signature pine trees in the center of every one of the log cabins he builds. I can see why people pay top $ for these cabins...its pretty crazy to think most of these cabins are just summer vacation getaways for the rich. Must be nice.
oversized queen-sized quilt for my parent's. started in november 2004, finished handquilting in 2007
the entire quote is " your companionship is like prozac for my soul." it came from the japanese version of iron chef. you can't not do something with a quote like that. i went ti the library and found symbols to correspond - as closely as i could, there wasn't a character for prozac - i substituted sedative, and painted them on vellum.
