Fabulous Facilitator's Wonderful Works!!

Okay, here are the photos of my fabulous facilitator's wonderful works. She is amazing. I will tell you her first name is Kathleen. Here is her finished quilted version of Country Sunshine designed by Lorraine Hofmann. Lorraine's pattern is in the Blackbird Design book called You're Invited!
Kathleen sent the quilt off to be machine quilted and the quilter did a stunning job. Her name is Rosemary.


Here are two pieced quilts done by Kathleen.

Look at this quilt top done by Kathleen also. All wool appliqued on flannel. This is called Folk Art Album by Primitive Gatherings.


Kathleen is such a inspiration to many ladies and she is also a fantastic applique teacher. Thank you Kathleen for sharing your love of applique with so many, me included.

With Passion, Carrie P.

Wow, Kathleen, what beautiful work and thank you Carrie for sharing with us. I absolutely love the Folk Art Album. Did Kathleen do this as a BOM from somewhere? I would love to do this as a bom for myself. How cozy the flannel and wool would be on a cold Iowa winter day.
