Soooo……A lot of my friends are signing up to this challenge and I have seen so many artists produce wonderful results in past years.
I have been thinking about projects that will help me grow my design skills.

As you know, Minimalism is always a stretch for me.

At the same time, I love playing with color.

And I want to do a hand stitching project that I can do in the evening or on the road at QuiltCon.

I’m pretty close to figuring this out!

Stay tuned for updates soon.

Yes!! Thanks to @chirpbooks for offering such a broad range of books in so many genres. I read most books on audio recordings. And I love a good narrator. 🎙️

📚 Chirpbooks is a very, very inexpensive way to buy audio books. Books as low as $1.99 and up.

My other sources are HooplaDigital and Libby—apps that I use to borrow FREE audiobooks from my local library online. 💻

Now….if you feel the urge to post that 🎧listening to a book is not as good as reading words on paper or screen… well be very, very, very careful. 😡I may just snap back with…oh….the fact that all literature was SPOKEN or SUNG for most of human history. English literature major here, all right!
🎼And notice that one of my current reads is the History of Music—a thoughtful essay on mostly Western music so far.

But, I wont lie. My library is 95% detective/police procedural mysteries. 🤭😁

Registration is open to everyone for my Small Grou

Registration is open to everyone for my Small Group Intensive Workshops.⁣
We kick off with “Working in a Series”. This collage shows several works that are part of a multi year series exploring curves (obviously) AND other very important design elements. Without these other elements, this would be a dull repetitive series. ⁣
⁣
Come study with me in this workshop—there will only be 12 seats so register today!⁣
⁣
I’ll share techniques to help you discover and structure a unique series that can keep you energized and inspired for months and years. ⁣

Registration link is in my bio!⁣

Have you ever wanted to create a dynamic Quilt S

Have you ever wanted to create a dynamic Quilt Series—developing your own quilt design ideas?

Have you wondered how other quilters keep coming up with innovative changes that are fresh and exciting variations of their work?

I would love to show you the techniques I use to start and sustain series of quilts— creating variations on designs & colors.

Modern, contemporary, art quilters and traditional quilters can enjoy this workshop on Working in a Series.

Registration is OPEN for my live workshop over Zoom.

Link in my Smart bio will take you to all the info. #modernquilt #fiberart #artquilt #quilt #improvisationalquilt #quiltworkshop #virtualworkshop #traditionalquilt #textilearts #textileart #quiltdesign #quiltersofinstagram #saqa #saqaart
