Nancy Curran has stitched these flower collage pieces, then framed them all the same to create this impressive grouping:

Lori Wahl took my California Poppy class in Placerville last year, and she changed the colors of the bright orange poppies into a darker rust orange color, then finished the small 8" x 8" design into a luscious pillow:

Judy Gehman worked the Sawtooth Sampler in much bolder colors, which turns this traditional pattern into a more contemporary-looking piece:

Lisa Balbes sent me this photo of her rendition of my little freebie piece of Grandma's Garden:

as well as transforming the blue Hydrangea House into a sweet little green house to match her own home:
