News about my book, friends in my studio and a new quilt

May 31, 2018

It’s been an intense week as I frantically worked to finish a new quilt to submit tothe World of Beauty show in Houston. I have been 100% accurate in my previous predictions of whether I’d jury in or not, but this time I am not feeling confident. But it doesn’t matter what I think, it’s […]

May 3, 2018

I’m trying to hit a deadline. I had my idea all firm in my head, sketches were done confirming my idea. I did some preliminary stitching “off-line” just to make sure. Then I started stitching. Ack, the thread color was wrong. On the bobbin side it looks like a spider just laid a web. Didn’t […]

New Work!

March 1, 2018

Last year was The Year of Writing. Like any huge undertaking it had its trade-offs. It was all consuming, the equivalent of making several successful competition level quilts in one year as far as I could tell. It filled my brain and my days. It was isolating. It will be all worth it and I’m […]
