Welcome to my new website! I am thrilled with how it looks and works and I hope you are too.
A bit about me,
My dream was to become a painter, but I found that I wasn't very good at creating realistic images. Being involved in sewing led me to traditional quilting but I was again frustrated by not being able to create my version of realism. This was in the 1990s when art quilting and a myriad of new tools and fabrics became available. The best ones for me were glues for fabrics, heavy stabilizers, and hand dyed or printed fabrics that allow my imagination to 'see' landscape elements in them. At this time I also started playing with free motion stitching, and invented ways to add details to my landscapes with just two stitches. And my little business was born.
I've been in galleries, art shows, quilt shows, commissions, presentations and teaching (both virtually and live).I feel very fortunate to have this second career as teacher, having taught primary students for many years, and now can teach my techniques anywhere. The best part is seeing my students delight in what they have created. I teach techniques and art concepts but always encourage students to make their own creations with that knowledge.
I hope you'll join in the fun and excitement of doing so.
My daughter, Annie and me
