Remember I shared with you I had taken a fall last month? It is mostly better; I still feel a twinge when I lie on my left side a certain way. I must have bruised a muscle there. I mention this again because it reminded me about a blog I used to follow faithfully, the Carolina Stitcher. Faye, back in 2019, took a very bad fall which broke her arm in two places and shattered her elbow. Her son gave several updates on her blog but then nothing. Just wonder what happened to her. Anybody know?? As for myself, I ...

It took me a while (as I'm sure it did you) to settle into a Covid way of life and find a level of contentment in what I could safely function. Now it seems I have to reverse engines and go back the other way. The question is how far back do I want to go?

This quilt is designed by Emma from Treehouse Textiles, and was designed for the 2021 Treehouse Textiles Block of the Month program ...

I have been creating little embellishments, small pieces of embroidery and patchwork using paper and cloth.
Having a collection of these pieces to hand is essential when I create a new artist book. They fill pages, they are extra adornment
