It is the first of August and I have just returned from a great trip to teach in Taiwan and China. I had great dedicated creative students in all of the classes. It was a trip of a lifetime. I am so blessed to do what I do and so glad that I love teaching. I will be teaching and lecturing in the Bay Area this month then a trip to Madeline Island School of Design for a week long workshop on how to make a quilt from a watercolor painting. I am very excited about that. My new book “Artful Log Cabin” is out and seems to be doing good. So that makes me happy. Now it is time to spend sometime in my studio and make some new quilts!! I can’t wait
happy end of the summer to you

“Life’s Works”
Summer is here and it is certainly a different experience in Northern California than it was ever in Santa Fe New Mexico. Soooo much cooler! I love it. I just returned from a great trip showing off my quilts at my exhibition “Life’s Works” at the Vermont Quilt Festival.
I have decided to extend the great discount rates on my quilts for the month of July. So please look at the following price list and let me know if you are interested in any of the works.

Time Is Really Going Fast
The first of June already!! time is really going fast this year and I am very busy. Off to teach in Boston next week for Quilters Connection, teaching a two day Artful log cabin and a lecture and a book signing at their show. Then I drive to Greenville to teach a week long workshop on Fractured Landscapes! Haven’t taught that one in a long time but it is making a comeback and I am excited. Then home for a few days then out to the Vermont Quilt Festival where I am having a show of my life work as a quiltmaker. I will hang 45 of my quilts, old to new. If you are in the area please stop by and say hi!! Then a brake and go to my family reunion at Trinity Lake. I always look forward to that.
This past weekend my sisters and I got together to make patriotic quilts for our Veterans.
We give them to vets that we know and also the vets that are affiliated with the wonderful program at College of the Redwoods with Crystal Morse. She is awesome and so caring for their needs and she often feels they need a quilt!! and we handle that for her.
Have a great summer
love
