Warrior Spirit Quilt

This quilt was my next adventure in coming up with my quilt design. This quilt is called "Warrior Spirit" The inspiration was from my friend, Jeffrey Shoop and his Karate classes. He was taught many valuable principles that I wanted to put into the quilt. Thank you Jefe for the inspiration!!

3-Color Rail Fence Quilt

 
I loved the Rail Fence pattern so much that I decided to make this quilt for my sister, Bree, so she could have this in her new apartment. A little house warming gift. She let me know the colors she used and the quilt turned out perfectly!!!

5-Shade Rail Fence Quilt

This quilt was made for my cousin's first baby. They live in Australia so I wanted this quilt to be special. I asked my quilting instructor at Sun Valley Quilts to help me come up with a baby quilt pattern. She showed me this 5-shade rail fence and helped me find the colors that worked beautifully.
