In 2005 Ruth created the background portions for 2 banners for a church in Kenya. The banners adorn church buildings that were built in August 2005 by a group of adult workers from Webster Presbyterian Church. This photo shows one of the banner backgrounds. Another person later applied an appliqué image to the banner background. | |
Ruth's Wild Geese pattern is adapted from a variation of the popular Flying Geese pattern. This 31 inch square wall quilt won First Prize in the small quilts (modern construction) category at the Country Fair held at Genesee Country Village in October 2003. | |
Wild Geese hangs on our dining room wall alongside Irish Chain, another 31 inch square wall quilt Ruth made. | |
On the opposite wall is Ruth's Teapot Quilt. The teapot and teacup shapes shown on the quilt are taken from teapots and teacups that we have. | |
Ruth also designed and made this Queen-sized bed quilt that she calls Hungarian Puzzle. The design is an adaptation of the Puzzle Quilt design. Ruth calls it Hungarian Puzzle because the blue patterned fabrics came from Hungary. David's mother brought them back from one of her numerous travels to various parts of the world. | |
