As a young college grad, I traveled around Europe with two girlfriends and we made the trek to West Berlin. The Cold War was still in in full throttle and the Berlin Wall divided the city. I remember our Berlin visit vividly: climbing the perches alongside the Wall...

I finished this a while ago but only recently got around to photographing it. I’m not sure what I want to title it yet. It features my fascination of creating blocks from random tiny scraps leftover from other projects . It’s one of my favorite things...

Found a way to use up some of my fabric selvedge scrap collection – much needed new covers for our well used living room pillows!

At QuiltCon I took Jeni Baker’s Equilateral Triangle class and started this quilt made from (mostly) Carol Freidlander fabrics and some of my other graphic fabric favorites. I like learning new techniques to make projects quickly and this was definitely one that...

How I love a long weekend! I had a wonderful, restful and reflective time with my family and alone as well. And part of that time involved finishing two quilt tops I’ve been planning for a long time. This one uses 36 different “made fabric” blocks...

I literally have bins and bins of old jeans from my family plus a pile I’ve been hoarding from an elementary school rummage sale for (ahem) over a decade now. I have a long term goal to use them all up, but it may well take a lifetime before I could sew so...

Well, ALMOST the first. Still have to bind and wash, but I just finished this very dense quilting. I needed to start the year with a project that I really wanted to look at – both as a project to work on and something I wanted to keep (for me!) in our home....
