Flowers For My Sissy

This was created as a birthday gift for my little sister, Sherry. She will see it for the first time when she comes to view this exhibit....SURPRISE!

This is a joyful and happy quilt, and reminds me of all the fun and laughter I have shared with my sister.

I love you Sissy

My sister and I at the exhibit last week

LuAnn & Sherry

Sherry looked at the quilt and said, "I can't believe you made this for me."

As for me...I can't imagine making it for anyone else...

In keeping with the theme of this exhibit, "Evolution of a Quilter", the next quilt is one of my earlier homespun creations...quite a contrast:

Angels Watching Over Us

This quilt was created with my favorite Red Wagon Plaid fabric collection.

I began piecing this quilt in the 1990’s and completed the Hand Quilting in 2003

What appeals to me most about this quilt is the homespun feel and folk art look.

I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness because it shows me the stars. --Og Mandino
