About Me

I've been sewing most of my life, off an on, for different reasons. In the past couple of years I've been drawn to quilting as creative outlet, as well a means for gifting something personal to special people in my life. I also (despite the frustration it can bring), enjoy the challenge of figuring stuff out, and learning something new. Quilting is a reprieve from the daily grind, and an opportunity to create something tangible (a satisfaction I rarely get from my job).

Favorite Crafts

I grew up sewing and crafting along side my mom and grandma so had the benefit of being exposed to a wide range of hobbies. Currently I've put the knitting aside and am concentrating on quilting, drawn back to it and re-energized by the "modern" quilting movement. I've come to very much like quilts where the use of bright color (rather than feature a novelty print) are the design highlight, however when I shop for fabric I'm always sucked into buying those irresistibly cute novelty prints. So, swapping seemed like a great way to expand the range of prints and colors in my stash, and I'm excited to try this out!

Stuff that keeps me busy

A punky shiba inu, three cats, three chickens, training for a marathon, and working.

Comment: What a lovely card! I can't believe you've never seen a cardinal! I see them all the time! I was at the St Louis Zoo today and saw one on the entrance to the train.

Comment: Thank you for the fabrics, they were great. Because they were not the correct size, 5X5, I did not give a heart.
