I have loved crafting for as long as I can remember. I started out with beading and embroidery when I was young (it was the Sixties, what can I say)? Over the years I have taught myself to spin wool and dye it using natural dyes from my garden. I did a little bit of weaving and crocheting too. I did a lot of ceramic painting and taught a few classes at a local senior center. I do photography and enjoy taking photos of my garden and all the birds, bees and deer that come by.
I managed a craft/fabric store in the past, but never had much time to work on my own projects. I have the time now and I want to learn to master my Pfaff and tackle some quilts. I have made a couple quilts and I am inspired by all the wonderful quilters I see on the TV and computer. With practice I hope to do much better in the future. I especially love reading about the history of Quilting. Those women did so much with so little and the stories about some of their quilts are wonderful. Wish me luck!
