My Portfolio

All my Quilts, from 2003-2009. Many of these will be available for CUSTOM ORDERS on my Etsy shop--TheCraftyAngel.Etsy.com. I am still building my shop, but if you see something you're interested in, please hop over there or email me headacheslayer @ gmail dot com (leave out spaces, add the dot).

Quilt consultations can take up to 1 week. Allow 1 week for ordering any fabric. Constructing a quilt start to finish can take up to 3 weeks, and then the quilt will be shipped to you! These will TRULY be custom--not just a name stitched on somewhere. You will choose *some* of the fabrics, the pattern (prices differ), and state likes/dislikes. So some will be a surprise--that's the fun part for me! But my goal is to give you a useable piece of art that will bring you joy for years to come. I am so grateful for all the amazing comments I got on the Menagerie Quilt which inspired me to find Etsy. I hope that everyone finds a passion like quilting is for me, that brings them exquisite bliss!

And now, for the quilts!



This was my very first quilt, "Railfence Toss", from my first quilting class. I was fortunate to be taught by Eva Larkin, Quilter and Author. I try to remember all she taught me. But mostly about having fun with my quilts and not overstressing about perfection.
*This quilt will be available for custom orders*


Two School Auction Quilts: The first, "Going to a Go-Go" in a 70's theme with photographs, the second "Lights, Camera, Action" in a movie theme.
*Both will be available for Custom Orders (the second will have prints in place of movie photos)*

I created this quilt "Photo Quilting Class" for the first class that I taught in 2004. While there are many ways to reproduce photographs onto fabric, I prefer the ready-to-print sheets, which I will be using on my quilts in the future. I was stressed about this quilt--my machine was acting up, and we were in the midst of the 3 Hurricanes that eventually crossed Florida. But the class went on as planned :)
*Available as a custom Photo quilt*


"Grandma's Sweethearts", "Rhapsody in Blue", "More Precious Than Gold"--all 3 made for Grandmothers and Great-Grandmother.
*Available for custom Photo Quilt*

"WaterBirth FantaSea"--made for a dear friend's baby.
*Available for custom Quilt*


"Wedding Path" for my Sister. The hardest quilt I've done to date!
*Not available for custom purchase*




"Vollyballs" and "Pirates" Sudoku quilts--based on the number puzzle game. Made for my kids.
*Available for Custom Quilt*



"The Menagerie" for my future Nephew! This is, by far, hands-down, my favorite of all! There are 70 fabrics in this quilt. I can't wait to see him on it!
*Avalable for custom quilts--Custom order will have fewer fabrics*
Keep in mind, that I don't make the same quilt twice. Same pattern yes, maybe even a few of the same fabrics (I'm working on a good stash here!). But I like that each is a one-of-a-kind Quilt. My artistic soul will never get bored!
If you like what you see, keep an eye on TheCraftyAngel.Etsy.com! If you can't wait, give me a nudge and I'll set up a listing just for you! I'll make an announcement when my shop is officially open!
