What's New?
Been spending some time in the dye studio and created this mandala as well as a lot of other bits. Currently sell my hand dyes at lectures and workshops, hoping to expand it to my Etsy Shop...

At the Narragansett Bay Quilters Show 2018 at the North Kingstown High School in North Kingstown, RI - April 21st and 22nd
A number of my quilts received ribbons in the Judged Category
"Arthur's Ties" won Best of Show - my first ever for a quilt entirely designed, pieced, and quilted by me.
Over the years a good number of quilts I quilted for others have received this honor, so this was especially exciting!
Arthur's Ties also won a 1st Place ribbon for Exemplary Machine Quilting ~ Track, a 1st Place ribbon for Exemplary Piecing,
and a 2nd Place ribbon for Exemplary Innovative.
Talk about Bling!
