I confess: I’ve become addicted to English Paper Piecing.
I keep a bag with 3/4″ freezer paper hexagons (my favorite size) by the iron and have now developed the habit of ironing them onto small scraps as they become available from other projects, and from there into the little sewing case I carry in my purse. Out comes the case whenever I find myself waiting for something or someone… and little by little the stacks grow. Eventually a project evolves – it can take some time as I basically do this at odd moments. In the end, however, I end up with a project I probably wouldn’t have planned on previously. This is the case of this Christmas tablerunner. Several months in the making, it is now finished and ready for the upcoming holidays!

I am a self-learner. I taught myself to sew and to quilt. And I taught myself how to draw. I am learning how to dye my own fabrics and am dabbling with mixed media. I am a quilt designer and teacher, and design and publish my own line of quilt patterns. With this blog I would like to share the bits and pieces of my life.
