- A magical island in the Great Pacific Northwest USA
- About Me:
- What would the world be without color and design? I can't imagine!
I collect, fabric, yarn, gadgets,paints and books. I began my creative life as a weaver & spinner and then found quilting almost 30 years ago. I have come full circle now and am, once again, spinning and enjoying adventures with wools. I can be obsessive about quilting,knitting, needle felting, spinning, dyeing, painting & reading. I would love to have a room large enough for a long arm quilting machine - but first I would have to win a machine ! I love to experiment with new techniques , learn new things, push creative envelopes, and smell the roses along the way.

I will make your cake very soon because I can't get it off of my mind. Sounds like your midnight shift was the place to be during the holidays. Smiles, Diana
No, I have not done Eartha, but you can bet that she will be on my list now. She has interesting festures in her face that I would really have fun with mixing fabrics! I will send you a copy when it is done. Thanks, Diana
Oh, I also copied your rum cake recipe from your blog and will give you feedback when I make it. Thanks
I am just thoroughly besotted with felting now. I just took and order for a clone of my felted crow, Epley!
I was happy to get the hummingbird done just as they returned to the Pacific Northwest for their Spring rounds ! You both have some wonderful, exciting work out there - and we are lucky to have you here on Fiber Arts/Mixed Media ! Best!
I am still surprised that I love machine free motion more than anything now. I used to avoid it like the plague. One day something just "clicked" - and then it was a matter of practice. I still have a long way to go - but I enjoy the practice a lot now !
