I did something today that I very rarely do: I rolled up a piece in progress, put it away and started a new one.  Now I now that for 99% of quilters this is not that big a deal but for me – it’s a really big deal, like a huge colossal deal… I always … Continue reading →

Every time I do a trunk show or workshop at a guild I inevitably get asked questions about what products and brands that I use in my studio and where I get them.  Given that we are fast approaching the season of gift guides and wish lists I thought I would do a blog post … Continue reading →

It was a busy week in the studio the last couple of weeks and I managed to get a few things crossed off my to list…. I wanted to have something fun to give away to friends at Quilt Festival this year so I had my “stay calm and press on” quilt turned into a … Continue reading →

My new book!

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.
