Last night I bought the fabric for my crazy quilt contest. I went to the store with one idea, but once I saw this glittery fabric, my whole concept changed. I bought all different bright, bold colors along with co-ordinating marbled fabric - and all of it sparkles. 'Going to the Ritz' popped into my head for a name [it has to have a name for the contest]. I have to finish drafting the pattern, then I can start sewing.
I joined a quilt guild last month. I am so glad that I did. The members are so friendly. Each month at the end there is a segment for members to show what they are working on or what they have completed. It is truely inspiring to not only see so much talent, but to see how much they give to charity - quilts, caps, dolls and more. I want to be a part of this very giving community.
Besides quilts, I also do embroidered towels, table runners, table toppers and wall hangings. One of my goals is to create my own website to showcase my creations and workmanship. There is still so much for me to learn and I am eager to try the multitude of techniques available for fabric art and quilting.
