Mini Breeze

April 23, 2014

I’ve been super busy, and for the first time in weeks I had time to quilt. What a joy it was to be able to sit and quilt a bit. I created a little 6″ x 8″ quilt for the Studio Art Quilt Associates Anniversary Spotlight auction that will be held at the upcoming conference […]

November 15, 2013

I had a “Tailgate Critique” yesterday! How did that happen?? Read on. I am Co-Rep for the NorCA/NorNV region of Studio Art Quilt Associates. We held our quarterly meeting on Wednesday in Danville, a San Francisco Bay area community about a 2 hour drive from my home. One of the very best things about the […]
