I admire the ladies so much.
Each person created an individual design. I just smile when the excitement hits on the second day, “I can really do this”

Join me on a tour to Kenya. This is the experience of a lifetime.
I travel a lot and I don’t think I’ve enjoyed an experience as much as I did in Kenya last year. So we will repeat it with a little difference, it will be a small group and I will teach as we travel.
I will teach you photography and how to use your images in textile art.
So much inspiration, visit the Empty Spools Seminar.
The alarm on the cell phone rang at 3.30 am, and then a few seconds later the shrill of the phone by the bed encouraged me to get up. I’m not complaining, I slept well, but it’s probably the part of travel I like the least. I enlisted the help of the bell boy and…
Quilts, Quandaries and now a little quiet time
I have a program on my iPad called Sketchmee and it converts a photo to a sketch. It enhances the color and I have learned so much from using this program. For instance, look at the way it has covered the shadow of the shoes… I love it.

At times it’s a very lonely place to be.
I've been working in my own elemental direction for years now. At times it can be a really lonely space. No one at home has any comprehension of what I do, what needs to be done, or even how to do it. I mean the family understands and is very proud of what I…
