Tracy's Wedding Shoes




Tracy's Wedding Shoes

Art Quilts

This quilt is done from a picture I took
of the Chisos Mountains in Big Bend National Park at sunset. When the sun hits the mountains in the evening they take on this crimson color and are beautiful. The Rio Grande runs at the base of the mountains and the cacti is blooming in the foreground. This quilt is about 28" x 34". Each year at one of the quilt guilds I belong to, we purchase a packet of fabric to use in a challenge the next year. This was our 2008 challenge and I am thrilled to report that I won first place.

Yucca with two blooms. All pieces in domes are about 13" high. I have some nice pieces packed away that I don't have pictures of. I am having so much fun with this blog I might have to go unpack them and take pictures.


This picture is not great, but it is of three pieces. An old post gate with yuccas, Ocatillo, and a fence corner with yucca and prickly pear.

This well is about 13" tall with prickly pear, yucca, and a dead tree. The glass dome it is under has a little glare.
