As I was packing for our move, I noticed that I hadn’t posted photos of a few older fabric books. This one was created with muslin and upholstery fabrics with ribbon, photo on fabric, silk, wire, crochet and tatting. I like the simplicity of this book and the subtle colors.

Fabric Friday 5
I am a sucker for the beautiful prints from Anna Maria Horner. Her new Folk Song quilting cotton collection includes prints that had previously been released in voile. I have been stock piling several different Anna Maria Horner collections for a fun patchwork quilt, but every time I start a new batch of art quilts, […]
Reader Creativity
I love seeing quilters and crafters creating pieces inspired by my patterns and creations. Debbie created this art quilt using a believemagic prizes package earlier this year she won. Isn’t the dog a sweet touch? In 2013, Shelly was visiting family in Alaska and wanted to see my art. Since I didn’t have a show […]
Bees & Cats
Before I pack my studio, I’m trying to catch up on bee blocks. It’s fun to work on discrete blocks that will be used by other quilter. And occasionally, I glimpse one of the new kittens cuddling with Fluffy.

The Makers fabric line by Cori Dantini is happiness on fabric with spring colors and girls making things! The collection include large, medium and small girl panels. The other fabrics in the collection will blend perfectly with the panels to create a great quilt. They will also make great art quilt backgrounds. I picked up […]
Decide Happy
Double top knots in blonde on a chocolate background. Sometimes I start creating a magpie girl art quilt, but once the girl is added, she doesn’t want ruffles. She has a message to share that I stitch into her white dress. What ever you decide to do, make sure it makes you happy (13†x […]
Ready for Garden Party
The bushes in my backyard have started to bud – spring is almost here. I know further south of here flowers and green green grass fill yards. This girl and I are anxious to enjoy a day in a blooming garden. Her sweater is embellished with little loops of stitching. And tiny flowers are quilted […]
