a new direction

Posted on June 17, 2020 by Sue Bleiweiss • 3 Comments

I haven’t done much, really any, work with textiles over the last 6 months. Once I finished my house plants quilt my desire to work on anything whimsical dried up and I just wasn’t interested in doing anything but working on my photography. My textile work is very whimsical and quite frankly with all that’s … Continue reading →

So we all find ourselves in a situation right now that is totally foreign to the way we are accustomed to living our lives.  Social distancing, shelter in place, schools are closed, retail shops hanging closed signs on the door and everyday the news gets scarier and scarier.  I’ll be honest, as an introvert who … Continue reading →

you never know when inspiration will strike

So you probably picked up on the fact that I have been struggling to find my creative art quilting mojo the last 6 months ago.  I think part of the problem was that I was too hung up on trying to merge my photography with art quilting and I no matter what approach I tried … Continue reading →

Since I left corporate America in 2002 I’ve spent the last 17 years (would you believe I found my old typepad blog still out there in cyberspace?!) setting and meeting a lot of challenges for myself. I started with weaving – I took a class, fell in love with it and spent the next several … Continue reading →

In my last post I talked about how my photography hobby had become a big part of my life and that I wanted to somehow try to merge it with my fiber work.  I decided to start with a simple photo with a limited amount of imagery in it so I went back through some … Continue reading →

I finally finished this latest quilt in my black and white series: It took me forever to stitch over all those black lines!  I am glad to have this one done and it’s the last buildings themed quilt that I will be making for the time being and I will get to why in a … Continue reading →

Last month I wrote about being juried into the League of New Hampshire Craftsman and I can’t say enough good things about this organization.  I’ve been a member for less than 8 weeks and I already have work in four of their gallery locations  (Littleton, Sandwich, Hanover and Nashua) – I just dropped these four … Continue reading →

I recently got juried into the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen and with that came an opportunity to have my work represented in their eight locations across New Hampshire and a solo exhibit this summer at the Eversource corporate headquarters in Manchester (more on this as soon as I have confirmed the dates).  I’ve been … Continue reading →

I’ve gotten quite a few questions lately about how and if I am still enjoying the Babylock Coronet long arm that I bought so I thought I’d do a blog post to talk about how it’s going and give you some things to consider if you are thinking about adding a long arm to your … Continue reading →

Posted on March 20, 2019 by Sue Bleiweiss • 2 Comments

I haven’t had much time for writing blog posts lately because I’ve been keeping my focus on being in the studio creating new work.  The focus has paid off because since I posted about finishing my first quilt of 2019 back on February 2, I’ve managed to design and finish two more…   I am … Continue reading →

Art Coaching

Are you struggling to define or find your creative voice? Are you overwhelmed with too many ideas, dabbling with lots of techniques and feeling a lack of focus? Maybe you just need to kickstart the creative process but you’re not sure where or how to begin. Or maybe you need help with writing an artist statement, drafting proposals for magazine articles or publishers or guidance with marketing and the business of being an artist. With this coaching option you can work with me a month at a time with no long term commitments to worry about.
