First T-Shirt Quilt from Eppies Great Race

I have to admit, I haven’t received the response I expected from being a vendor at Eppies Great Race. I thought with all those people, more orders would have happened by now…but maybe these things come in time. There was a lot of positive feedback from those that stopped by and hopefully more orders for Continue reading “First T-Shirt Quilt from Eppies Great Race”

Quilting Brand

A friend of mine was over the other day and I was showing her the studio (garage) and my portfolio. As she was looking through my books she asked if I had a signature or image that I quilt into all of the pieces I do. I don’t…or I should say I didn’t. This hasContinue reading “Quilting Brand”

Bragging

I need to brag on God a minute. Let me tell you a story of what he did for me this weekend. It might me a little long…but it’s in the details that God’s grace shines through. Friday night I had a quilt on the machine that I needed off by Saturday morning for aContinue reading “Bragging”

Garments to Quilts

A couple months ago I met a gentleman and his daughter at a local fabric shop. They had 3 large black bags full of clothes that had belonged to the wife and mother that had recently passed. They wanted 3 quilts, one for each of them and a brother. I finished them up last night.Continue reading “Garments to Quilts”

I have to do it again…

Catch up that is…I haven’t been out of action, I have been busy with quilting, my real job, adopting a dog, getting fit…and putting of updates. Recently it came to me that I should see if there was a phone app for this blog thing…take a couple pictures, pull together some words and post. MightContinue reading “I have to do it again…”

A few years ago I was commissioned by my cousin to make a quilt for her daughter with the T-shirts she collected throughout gradeContinue reading “Memory Quilts”
