~My Sister's Long-Awaited Heart Quilt~

She was so happy to finally get it!!!
Here she is, about to head for home,
showing it with her neice, my daughter Hannah!

She waited at least 6 YEARS for me to finish this!!!
{We actually lost track!!!}

Here's a close-up of some of the quilting I had so much fun doing!

GREETINGS!

Every day, my lovely new sewing machine calls to me, "Come play with me!" Like a child at the door, calling me away from chores & responsibilities!
And many days lately, I've been listening...sometimes even ignoring the other things I should be doing, *blush*....
...so I've set up this blog to share with the world some of the things that have come out of my hands & ideas...
...& just sew ya know, I don't use patterns, preferring to learn on my own, & make things up as I go along! Otherwise, I feel like I'm just copying, rather than creating! (Yes, I use my seam-ripper lots!)
I do read lotsa quilting & sewing books, magazines & websites for inspiration & tips, though, & have been working on selling more of the things I create, {but still often end up giving things away to my friends & loved ones!}
Feel free to write & let me know if you're interested in anything I'm posting, though, & I'll get right back to you to let you know if it's available for purchase!

Thanks for visiting my blog!
Hope it inspires you to go express your own creativity!

"Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life."
~Pablo Picasso~

To me, quilting, sewing, making something out of pieces of fabric is my art...it brings out my creativity in a way only playing guitar, singing, & songwriting has ever affected me...
...so deeply it changes me, moves me beyond myself into a realm of possibilities there is no other way for me to enter...
...so go do something creative already, whatever it is for you!!!
It'll make your day more wonderful!!!
