Cheshire Garden By: Regina Arlauckas, New York, USA This “Disappearing/Reappearing Nine Patch” was the result of a charm pack that was a gift – and a challenge. The construction was done without a pattern, and I just loved the result. It was given as a gift to my sister, who loves the Cheshire Garden as much as I do. Quilt size: width: 64" height: 78" |

Dish Garden By: sharon vrooman, New York, USA After being tired of our long, cold winter, I made my own “dish garden” of flowers to brighten up the days. It’s still too cold and wet for planting flower beds, but I have my flowers. Paper pieced and hand quilted. Quilt size: width: 28" height: 24" |

Flowers for Betsy Bug By: Billie Kretzschmar, Texas, USA My Grandmother made the embroidery blocks 35 to 40 years ago or more. I made them into a quilt for my Mothers 89th Surprise Birthday Party.

Frog of Sharon By: Julia, Mississippi, USA Spring, a time of flowers & frogs. I tried a new technique, for me, to make a “Rose of Sharon” quilt. I only made a quadrant thinking I may not like the technique. The way it turned out it looked something like a frog, so I call it “Frog of Sharon.” Quilt size: width: 8.75" height: 8.75" |

Sweet Pea By: Barbara Bieraugel, Hawaii, USA Sweet Pea was a quilt that I made for the birth of a grandniece. What is more spring like than the smell of old fashion sweet peas?

The World is a Garden By: Debbie Clarke, South Carolina, USA This trip around the world pattern is done in all florals in a colorwash technique.
