The first is a primitive doll by Tiffany of Primitive Blessings. I made this a year ago to go with a friends crib, but never finished it, so I finally got it done. I wasn't sure what to add to it, so I just put some basic stitcheries and antique it. I love to add names from my family history, Loper is one of those names.
And for all you lovers of bright and crazy, here is my hippie piece. To recap the story, the first time I met my husband, was when he drove a few of us to Boston, to see Aerosmith. I had a boyfriend at the time, but the minute I met Bill, there was a connection that we had. I had to add a kitty and dog to my world and the words are two songs from their first album. I did free motion on the background, using the swirls are a guide and the outer edge has a machine, feather stitch.

Ha ha, I love this one Debbie :-) :-) You know they say old hippie's never die, they just fade away. Not sure who said that, but they were completly wrong. :-) x x x
Love the details, the cat with the glasses and the one way street sign and the whimsy. Great job on a fun story quilt! Keep up the great work!
Love the stitchery - I really like the way you age them. And I LOVE your Dream On quilt, story quilts are the best! Great story!
Debbie, your hippie quilt is perfect! You captured the groovy feel of the time! Oh, the places those bugs took us!
