This quilt was designed and pieced in the mid 1940's by my grandmother, Malie Daniel Baugh.  My mother wanted it finished for her 75th birthday, and I added the embroidered roses to the quilt for her. The quilting is freehand and mostly original with the exception of the corner hearts, which were designed by Sharon Schamber. Malie's Lonestar was entered in the 2016 Texarkana Quilt Show, where it won numerous awards- including Best of Show.

This quilt was a collaboration between Peggy Thurin, who designed and pieced the quilt, and I, who designed and did the freehand quilting on it. The quilt was shown at the AQS Paducah Quilt Show in 2022.

This quilt is a remake of a quilt that I purchased in the mid 1990's. My middle son, Gus, liked the quilt but wanted it remade in warm colors. I intended to have it finished by his high school graduation in 2019, but instead succeeded in completing it in 2024, two semesters before he graduated with his Master's! This quilt includes ruler work and my own computerized quilting designs created in Art & Stitch. It has been entered in the AQS Branson and Paducah 2025 Quilt Shows, as well as the 2025 International Quilt Festival in Houston.

This quilt is an Ilene Bartos design that I quilted with an edge-to-edge circle motif and added a facing to finish. It is made entirely of silk fabrics- even the backing!

This quilt started as a checkerboard of 9" batik squares. Seriously ugly. At the time, I thought glorious quilting would save it... It would not. I took the entire quilt apart and cut the 9" squares into the pieces needed for a "corn and beans" block and then pieced everything back together. I arranged it to have a shimmery effect instead of the traditional triangle pattern.
