After MANY years as a frustrated wannabe artist I was able to begin doing IT after quitting my jobs in education. I did infuse the arts into my teaching at every opportunity. Now I dabble in the fiber arts as much as possible. I also enjoy being with family, reading, playing poker, walking my dog, Beethoven and teaching quilting arts and other areas of the fiber arts.

Mesquite retreat
We all had a wonderful time at the retreat in Mesquite, NV. One hundred fiftly women all sewing away; some on quilts or a mystery quilt. Some were doing other fiber arts and some were taking classes. I was working on dolls most of the time and had many interested people watching. I took commissions for two dolls and sold one outright. I also took a poinsettia pillow class and love the pillow. I will be teaching it to members of my other quilt club in November. Here is a photo of my finished pillow.
