Noreen at Hankering for Yarn tagged me for the 7 Random Facts Meme, in which I list seven facts about myself. I also was tagged at my Home Biz Notes blog and have listed seven there.
So even though I’ve listed seven facts at Home Biz Notes, I’ll see what information I can provide here that may […]
If you’re involved in quiltmaking and fabric art as a business, you may want to check out my recent post, Being a Home Worker in a Home Business, at Home Biz Notes. There I discuss my experience when I made samples and later the finished products for a customer who was involved in finding markets […]
Our b5media Arts & Design Channel features a Theme Day each month with all of the bloggers participating. This month our theme was “green”…for St. Patrick’s Day, spring, fresh ideas, and luck.
William Lehman, at Artist Hideout, did a great job of hosting and even came up with this photo. Check out his blog to see […]
The first big snow storm of the season bombarded New Hampshire (USA) today, rather late in the season this year, but making for a day with schools closed, as well as some businesses.
It’s a good time to delve into my quilting projects.
Since I didn’t have time for anything too complex or lengthy, I got out my […]
The January theme for our Arts and Crafts Channel’s Theme Day is “All Things New.” This could mean new projects, new directions, turning your hobby into a business, taking new classes…essentially venturing out of your comfort zone.
I’ve found quiltmaking has changed so much over the years, from the “traditional” patterns and styles I made with my […]

I find this web site, Womenfolk, which contains much information about America’s […]
Blogging has become one of the newer methods of promotion, whether you’re involved in your fiber art/quilting as a business or simply want to become better known in this field. Many fiber artists operate a personal blog, as my daughter does, relating her latest projects and how they interact with her family life.
Others use the […]
Last year, second graders from a New York School invited several author/illustrators to contribute an illustration for a quilt block. The youngsters were studying about children’s authors and reading their books.
Although my children’s stories have been published mainly in magazines and I’m a writer more than illustrator, I did sketch the illustrations for an anthology, Tales of […]
Do you have something special you make in the world of fabric/fiber art? Do you have a technique that’s unique?
With so many quilters, what makes those stand out who are getting name recognition and orders for their work? This is not to say there isn’t a market for any quilting, but finding something that is […]
I browse through old magazines and find pictures of quilts, look at more in books of collectibles, and see some in family photos. I find myself fascinated by these older quilts and the stories they tell. Or the stories I imagine they tell.
So, I’ve begun another collection in my life…that of collecting pictures that remind me of […]
