Spring 2023 Roundup
How did it get to be almost June already? The last couple of months have flown by with exciting teaching and exhibit opportunities. I didn’t have time to post regularly, except on Instagram, so I thought I would recap the highlights here. At the end of February, I taught three classes at the Mid-Atlantic Quilt…
New Virtual Reality
The last couple of weeks I’ve been in learning mode, searching how to do things differently. My in person teaching and lecturing events have been postponed at least through June, but one guild asked me if I could do my visit with them virtually with both a lecture and a workshop. Of course I said…
Whirlwind October Recap
I’m back from my whirlwind trips in October and resting for a few days before I go to Gainesville, Florida next week for the Downtown Art Festival. I spent the first week of the month at home, then flew to LA to lecture and teach at the Westside Quilters Guild. You can see my post…

The Improv Puzzle class takes a free form approach to improv design. Students…
2019 Workshop and Lecture Schedule
I’ve added some exciting new workshops and lectures to my 2019 schedule, including events in Atlanta, GA, Houston, TX, and Birmingham England, so I thought I’d share the updated list. I had a great time teaching at Quilting at the Lake in Arizona last month–you can read about that adventure here. February 19 – Countryside…
Quilting at the Lake 2019
I’m on my way home from a fun event in Lake Havasu, Arizona called Quilting by the Lake. I taught two classes–one day of Contemporary Curves and two days of Playing with Crayons, and I shared one of my favorite lectures, Playing with Colors, at their evening event on Thursday. My students were enthusiastic and talented.…
Artful Improv Fun in Minnesota!

I always enjoy teaching this class and it’s a special treat to be able to teach it over two days. On the…
