SAQA Conference 2017-International Quilt Study Center and Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska

May 4, 2017

I feel wounded-somehow I accidentally erased most of my photos from the SAQA Conference in Lincoln, Nebraska! I have 4 useless surviving photos to try to capture/remember the experience. It hurts. I consider going to SAQA Conferences an investment in my career as a fiber artist. I come away each time with a richer, deeper […]

Patsy Thompson’s Quilt Suspension System and a Beautiful Spring!

April 27, 2017

I received a note from a reader this week asking me about my experience using Patsy Thompson’s Quilt Suspension system-thank you for the note Betsy! I forgot that I had not written about my experience with Patsy’s system so I’m reporting in. The system is super simple and comes in 2 styles: System #1 ($94.99) […]

A Favorite Tool and Some Student Work

April 6, 2017

I am not a huge user of ruler work on my domestic machine, but occasionally my quilt will call out for it. Let me be clear, I am not calling myself an expert on ruler work. And I actually like the look of an imperfect line. But I’m working on a project that does “need” […]

A Girl and Her Jeans

March 30, 2017

WARNING: Non-quilting post! I had a Fashion Moment while visiting Tucson a few weeks ago and I had to share. I know, I’m not exactly a fashion guru. But really, every woman needs a pair of flattering, well-fitted jeans, no? I have such a difficult time getting bottoms that fit. I’m oddly shaped with short parts, long […]
