Oh sweet memories
Eight years ago I was actively working on this quilt, Twilight in the Bronx. While having dinner with my sisters, sweetie and a very good friend my sisters gave me the batik fabric (where the applique's come from) and three spools of thread, which I used in the star. It was right after this… Continue reading Oh sweet memories

Dream Fulfilled
One thing I've dreamed of is having a quilt hang in the Sacred Threads Exhibit in Herndon, VA. I haven't done much in the way of serious quilt exploring and making in the last few years so entering this show hasn't even been on my radar.

Lancaster Quilt Show, A recap
Life is good. Getting to see this quilt from a distance was good. As always there are things I would do differently. Like ribbon candy in the white, and tighter on the other stitching. But ya know what? I love this quilt. Bruce took a moment to get a photo with me.… Continue reading Lancaster Quilt Show, A recap

QuiltCon
I often forget to take pictures of the people I get to meet. Often thinking that time will allow for picture taking later. Oddly enough it doesn't happen. So that I have these is something of a miracle. Linzi is a blogger (The Quilt Quine) I've been following for years, and a BERNINA Ambassador. Linzi… Continue reading QuiltCon
