A bit of "whatever comes to mind"


Here is the back of little Max's baby quilt. We are all anxiously awaiting his arrival. The detail from the front is a notation of his French Papa's heritage. See the tiny Eiffel Tower?

I've enjoyed watching Omega's work progress. Her simple forms and use of symbols intrique me. Her latest "Discomforter" pieces carry a narrative that may be different for each viewer, but certainly have tremendous impact. The Storyteller, with its mythological feel, remains one of my favorites.

Another favorite this summer has been DebR's self-portraits and poetry. How she has the time to do all that she does amazes me.
She oozes creativity in every direction.

  2. I love the back view of this quilt. It is a lovely feeling making baby quilts. I have not made one for many years now - it's their 21st birthdays that I make them for these days!

    Thank you for your comments on my work. I too am very fond of Storyteller.
