Just for the Halibut Placemat
I recently published a cookbook,
From Halibut to Jalapenos, which includes over 600 recipes, lots of cooking and
kitchen hints and tips, and recollections and photos from our homesteading days.
Many of the recipes were developed during our years as innkeepers in Alaska. I
made a quilt for the cover and also included "recipes" for two placemats to illustrate
the theme. After working through Barb Vlack's and Gordon's excellent lesson in
tracing bitmap files, I decided to convert the image for the placemat to a bitmap
file and try my hand a making a pattern using EQ5. It worked great! Thank you again
for the excellent lesson.
I hope that you'll enjoy making your own set of fish placemats -- and that you'll enjoy
the recipe I am sending for Halibut Sandwich Spread.

A hunger attach

Pinwheel pasta to be exact. I used Tangled lines block, random strips

and garlic bread.

Jethro Towel
A vintage kitchen towel was the inspiration for this wall quilt. I tried updating the 'retro' colors, but the piece just didn't have the same feel, so I stuck with the original towel colors, and after setting the center panel with pieced squares in the same colors, I think it came out looking pretty neat.

Rainy Day Mushroom Pillow
I don't know why, but I've always been fascinated by the various forms of mushrooms; possibly because they look so 'alien' in their appearance.

Simple design for a simple recipe.
You can not have a Calzone without some tomato which allow the addition
of red.

really.

Rose's is a wonderful Portland, OR spot to go for lunch or dessert. This carrot cake recipe always seemed worthy of their bakery (mostly I like the frosting :) )

Pi R Round
My Dad always said the mathematicians
had it wrong when they said 'Pi R Squared'...He said it should be' Pi R Round,
Cornbread
R Squared'...So I designed and quilted this wallhanging for him to illustrate
that he was right...
Quilt was constructed in Feb 2004 and design was recreated in EQ5. Apple
and Corn fabrics are scans of the actual fabric used.

Pizza Anyone?
While creating this quilt I learned some heretofore unknown to me techniques. If I can learn something new, I am willing to take my chances, even if the results are not extraordinary.

Snickers Cookies
I drew the cookies
and placed them on a dresden plate. I put the cookie kids in the border
(oh, oh, I think one of them took a bite!). The corner blocks are for
the cups and teapot which we need to go with the cookies.
The cookie recipe came from a fellow quilter.
