My Olive Green Tree of Life
Creating my Olive Green Tree of Life has taught me about the power of waiting, things develop in the artistic process. Often, the most beautiful creations take time to emerge. I encourage fellow quilters and artists to embrace your journey, no matter how long it takes. Your ideas will germinate and flourish, leading to art that is uniquely yours.

Endless Shades of Orange
Upcycled Fabrics - Endless Shades of Orange - Upcycling means transforming discarded materials into something beautiful and useful. This concept has always resonated with me, as it embodies creativity, sustainability, and resourcefulness. I am challenging myself to see how many different things I can create with the orange fabrics that I am finding.

From Stashing to Crafting
Something practical this week, summer crumb patchwork placemats. I found some summer crumb pieces and I decided not to store pieces anymore. Rather to create finished items and keep if I need, and gift the rest - Life is too short to hoard.

A Dark Moonscape
Creating art has always been a refuge for me, a space where I can express my feelings and ideas through colors and textures. The students had asked me to create a technique for an art quilt but they didn't want to have to iron at all. So I created my Strip Collage Patchwork. This method is wonderfully freeing, requiring no ironing or precision. Instead, it invites a playful approach to assembling fabric pieces into beautiful creations.

From Random to Radiant Sunrise Quilts
Bringing creativity to life through fabric is always a thrilling experience, and this year’s class has truly outdone themselves with their sunrise landscape quilts. Each quilt represents not just a project, but a personal story woven through the strands of fabric. The sewing studio has transformed into a vibrant gallery of colors, where each piece shines with its unique character.
