Weaving on Paper from Quilting & Learning

Hi and welcome. I hope that you've been having fun working on your stitching and quilting projects! I've been going a little crazy making mini weavings on paper and cardstock. What fun - and I did learn a lot about how I like to play - it was an interesting self-discovery.

Mini Woven Projects


Although I was a hand-weaver in my 20's and early 30's, I lost the joy that it brought me as life got ridiculously busy. My 15" loom was too noisy to work on while the babies were asleep and by then I had left ...

PQ 16 - 1 Mythical Creatures - A Korean Folktale from Quilting & Learning

Hi and welcome. This piece is in response to Project Quilting's first challenge of 2025. When PQ's first challenge was announced, I had just checked out TextileArtist.org's Stitch Club's latest class about Korean folktale art. What serendipity!  From the workshop I made a piece that I call "The Rabbit's Adventure". Let me tell you about it

Abstract Free Motion Embroidered Landscape from Quilting & Learning

Hi! I just finished a workshop by artist Dionne Swift on creating abstract embroidered landscapes with a perspective that lets the viewer enter the piece. I know that doing more than one sketch and piece is great for learning, but I'm usually impatient to get on with the next thing!

A handmade album covered with Glimpses of Antarctica from Quilting & Learning

I still haven't written my posts about our Antarctica trip, but I'm one step closer - I finished my stitched piece "Glimpses of Antarctica" and used it as the cover for an album to hold a few photos, postcards, etc.  

Glimpses of Antarctica


In February, I wrote a post about a few of my ongoing hand-stitching projects. The first was a mark-making and stitching project with Gwen Hadley through TextileArtist.org (see Related links below). I made marks on two pieces of white cotton - the first was heavily marked while the second was not.

I cut up the pieces ...

Learning Whitework techniques from Quilting & Learning

I'd like to share with you some lovely drawn thread work and pulled work embroidery techniques that I learned through TextileArtist.org's Stitch Club. I hope you're having a great week!

Whitework Embroidery


I've had an excellent session with Tracy A. Franklin this week on TextileArtist.org's Stitch Club. I've always admired the beauty of whitework but have always been too nervous to pursue it. In Tracy's workshop we learned drawn thread work and pulled work embroidery techniques. Very, very cool

A Large Experimental Sketchbook on Free Motion Mavericks from Quilting & Learning

Hi, I hope that you are well and spent more time stitching that I did! More sorting in my studio meant that there were no surfaces left to work on - so I've been slow stitching in the living room but don't have much to show for it....it's very SLOW!

Welcome to week 427 of Free Motion Mavericks. This week I'm busy getting ready for the annual Out of the Box (OOTB) Fibre Artists Group show. It's been virtual for the last two years so it's wonderful and a lot more work, now that it's live again.
