Quilting Spirit: PIQF Preview
http://quiltingspirit.blogspot.com/2010/10/piqf-preview.html
Wednesday, October 06, 2010. Tonight my friend Keri Duke of Keri Designs. And I are doing the final check and pack of the Maui Art Quilters special exhibit for the Pacific International Quilt Festival. Our exhibit, "Colors of Maui," will be on display in the special exhibits section of the show next week in Santa Clara, California. If you are in the neighborhood, I hope you will go to the show, see the exhibit, and stop by Keri's booth in the vendors mall and say hello. What an amazing quilt. Am I really...

Quilting Spirit: December 2009
http://quiltingspirit.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 18, 2009. Just got the confirmation email that my "Breakfast Ti" quilt arrived safely at the Road to California offices today. Whatever did we do in the days before all of this electronic communication? Certainly there was no comfort level - you simply packed up your box and sent it on its way with a prayer. Hopefully, 2010 will be a good show year, as 2009 has seen quite a quilting slump for me. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Other Stuff About Me. I think every ar...

Quilting Spirit: First Feature Show!
http://quiltingspirit.blogspot.com/2010/08/first-feature-show.html
Friday, August 27, 2010. I have been MIA for a long time. I'm returning to blogging as I am coming up for air after getting my quilts done for a show that opens this weekend. My work, together with that of three other artists, will be featured at Viewpoints Gallery through September 21. If you live on Maui or are visiting, I hope you will stop by and see the show. This is an incredible thrill and honor! Quite an honor and well deserved. So glad to see you back on the blog! Have a great day. Self-doubt ca...

Quilting Spirit: March 2009

Sunday, March 29, 2009. Is one of my favorite colors. Especially the beautiful blush on these fresh mangoes! 160;We are lucky to have them because it is very early in the year, but this woman's tree in Kihei has produced its first crop. Can you believe we got these beauties for about a $1 apiece? Wednesday, March 25, 2009. My art quilt group, Maui Art Quilters, is preparing for a special exhibit at PIQF in 2010. Rather than make a signature quilt where everyone works on part, we are each maki...I fina...

Quilting Spirit: June 2009
http://quiltingspirit.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 23, 2009. Bruce's new quilt, Late Summer Garden, is finished - I now have an empty sewing table, so I can get onto the next project! Here's a closeup of the quilting - simple. I love the way quilts pucker when they are washed. Thursday, June 11, 2009. Getting myself into trouble by visiting the Art Quilt Tahoe page and reading about Sue Benner's Landscape class. I was the very lucky recipient of the AQT scholarship award in 2007. It was a fabulous experience - so much so that I'd love ...

Quilting Spirit: February 2009

Friday, February 27, 2009. I wanted to see how to upload a video from my camera, so here is a quick look at our Lab, Cody, reacting to sounds from Bruce's iPod. Friday, February 06, 2009. Life as an Art Quilter. I've had a couple of conversations with quilting friends of mine recently. Seems as though they are going through a similar phase right now - realizing how many skills it takes to be an art quilter these days. I'm going to stop at 11 because I'm already tired from making this list. . 160;–...

Quilting Spirit: January 2009
http://quiltingspirit.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 28, 2009. Attempting to get one more quilt done before drop off day, next Tuesday! This will be a jacaranda themed quilt, again using silk. . Although I will undoubtedly keep making quilts with cotton, there is something very beautiful and exciting about using silk in quilts. Thursday, January 22, 2009.

Monday, April 20, 2009. Late Summer Garden - Top Finished! First things first.I have to add a picture of my NEW MAT. Believe it or not, this is the first new mat I've bought since I had the shop! 160;and managed to get this one inexpensively. Preliminary arrangements below. When I got the initial blocks done, Bruce wanted something with a little more "interest," so I added the sashing strips in between the blocks, trying to blend the light to the dark a little more. I added black Bal...160; You had to...

Quilting Spirit: Checking In
http://quiltingspirit.blogspot.com/2009/10/checking-in.html
Thursday, October 08, 2009. I was gently reminded by a friend the other night that I have not posted to my blog in months. She is tired of looking at that "damn pincushion" every time she checks my blog. I suppose that you, too, feel the same way but figure you don't know me well enough to smack me around and tell me to get back to work. LOL! And loved Jillian Michaels' " Master Your Metabolism. I managed to enter my " breakfast ti. I did not get "Sunday Morning" finished in time to enter, but am still a...
