Patches Workshop

I recently had a "Patches" workhop in our home. These ladies came from Alabama, Mississippi, and as far away as Kentucky. We had a delightful time together.




They worked hard to get their pieces quilted before leaving.

Art With My Little Friends

Talya drew a picture and then wrapped the edge around a skewer to make a flag.

Ashton participated in the 'youth' category at the Pine Belt Fiber Art and Quilt Show in Hattiesburg.

Delta with her page all colored up.

Paulina and JJ came to make art one afternoon. They are from Texas. Their dad hauls cotton bales for the local gin each fall.

Paulina and her turtle.

JJ and his kangeroo.

Paulina's stitched straight lines are impressive.


I look forward to these children coming back to finish up their projects.

Teryn makes sure none of the page is left uncolored.

Preparing Supper for Sheila

From an old photo of my Mother peeling potatoes while my next younger sister Sheila watches with her dolly ...

... I tweaked it with a photo filter and printed it on fabric and ...

... and quilted it for a piece of fiber art. Sheila is delighted!
