This page will be a collection of photographs of all of my finished quilts and other sewing creations to date. I will slowly be adding to this page, digging through my photo files for photographs of quilts I made before I knew to photograph them properly. I will link to relative blog posts when there are some, and hope to find photos of even my first few small wall hanging quilts–how this all started!
