Anne-Marie
Weston, a friend who spent many years in the
Bahamas asked for a
quilt for her grand-daughter. The fish and the
turquoise blues on this single-bed coverlet are reminicent of
the Caribbean sea.
She
helped make some of the fish from a Carol Doak paper-piecing
pattern and I did the rest of the piecing. Rutheanne Finnegan
did the machine-quilting on my long-arm machine. |

Dr. Booth’s
Bargello was the working title for this double-bed quilt, but
as I assembled the fabrics in the requested
colours, it became“Of Winter Fields and
Woods”, reminiscent of the stubble left in the fields and
the grey-brown of the bare tree trunks in
winter
Not all the
sections of this bargello are equal in length, which is
unusual. Of the course, the unequal widths of each strip
determine the overall bargello pattern.

| For Whom: |
Mrs. Isha Grinenko, Irvine, California
|
| Info: |
This was a surprise graduation gift for Mrs.
Grinenko's son Michael, who was an athlete. Mrs. Grinenko had
a number of T-shirts in mint condition from supporting him at
his high-school athletic meets and competitions. In the middle
of the quilt is one T-shirt commemorating one of his coaches.
