Counting…and a very awkward confession

August 8, 2019

  I’ve been doing a lot of counting lately as I make kits for upcoming venues: counting fabric bolts, squares of fabric, squares of batting, finished quilt sandwiches, kits for students and more.

July 25, 2019

Both Medford and Ashland are well-known nearby neighbors in Southwest OR. The Rogue River created the valley in which […]

“My” Jennifer Sampou quilt is at Quilt Market right now!

May 16, 2019

  I am still in awe that this happened: late in February, just as I was in full-tilt panic mode with deadlines, I got an IG message from Jennifer Sampou. She wanted ME to quilt something for her. Say whaaaat? Back story first: Jennifer pulled off a herculean move and timed the release of her […]
