Today, I begin the task of gathering the name of each victim of the Las Vegas shooting to create a new set of blocks for my Victims Quilt. As I type each one, I am looking at their photos and reading about who they were. I am reading about husbands who died shielding their wives and […]
You read about the day I had on Monday so it won’t surprise you that Tuesday morning I was a little tired sitting down for Creative Play. I didn’t create any masterpieces on Tuesday either, but that’s not really the point. One of my experiments for this week is to see if 15 minutes of […]
Not all parents want pastel baby quilts, which is why I made this one. I’ts a simple, modern style quilt in earth tone browns and spring greens with straight line quilting and a striped binding. All cotton materials and machine washable. I am running auctions that start each Monday morning. If you’d like an email […]

Up for auction this week is a set of 4 quilted cotton coasters. I started making fabric coasters when my toddler started playing with the breakable ones I used to have.

What I love about these napkin rings is that they are also machine washable! I am running auctions that start each Monday morning. If you’d like an […]
It’s Creative Play Date Day! I was falling asleep last night thinking about a new piece that I think I’ll get started on today. What about you? Can you find a few minutes today for some creative time?
As you read in my post on Thursday, I’ve been thinking a lot lately about art and commodity exchange and have decided to try an experiment. If my art is a gift and not a commodity, then I can’t put a price on it. So, I’m going to post one piece of art a week […]
The fourth quilt in my Arabesques series has been sleeping the winter away in a heap on my work table. (I last posted about finishing the top in June!) I’d done some basic quilting over the summer (?) in the fall (?) but put it away after that. I knew that it needed more quilting, but […]
I’ve just added a few more quilts for sale in my shop. Now all of my favorite art quilts are available for purchase, including “Circles,” which I created last year.
