Little Foot

In the last few years, my brother Charlie, has incorporated chickens in his back yard in Seattle.  Little Foot was a favorite.  Unfortunately she has gone to 'chicken heaven'.  

This photo was taken by my sister-in-law Marilyn.  I recreated it in fabric for his birthday.


Happy Homes

This project - highlighting the homes we have enjoyed since we married in 1971 - has been on my mind ever since we moved to Menasha.  First of all I wanted to include it in a large quilt.  Well.....this lovely home we now have is much smaller and fewer spaces to display a large project.  So I had to think small.  Finally I decided where it would hang and that would determine the final size.  I came up with a plan.  What fun it was to plan.....not to mention the trip down memory lane.  Each home....from our first apartment to our current home....has been a very special space for Ted and I.
