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.

quilts and other stuff
I'm putting quilts on the beds and refolding others so am including a few of the quilts that I have made. The bright one with lots of detail was so fun. I made it while also teaching it at our quilt club. note all the techniques including paper piecing, applique, postage stamp borders in both 1 inch and 1/2inch blocks,etc..
The blue ragamuffin quilt is very special. My mom embroidered all the ragamuffins (12) and gave them to me for xmas a couple of years ago. I did the rest.
And of course the Christmas quilt.
And look at the rose braving the cold weather. Beautiful roses still blooming outside the dining window.
