We had a successful book signing party at The Quilting Season yesterday. Many of my quilting friends and colleagues came to celebrate publication of my new book.

Talking to quilting friends

I’ve been working on developing some new stuff: fabric basket huggers; like a soup cozy, but custom fitted for each bowl and using decorated fabric

My first book, “String Quilt Style: Easy techniques and inspiring designs from strips, scraps, and stash” was published by Landauer Publications. Check with your local quilt shops for my  book. You can also order the book from Landauer Publishing. Take a look at the detailed information on string piecing and the design possibilities. It is a great way to use up fabric that you have. You may also get ideas for what to do with a fabric collection languishing in your stash.

Welcome, I hope to be writing more soon. I have been quilting for over 20 years now. Since retiring, I’ve become a full time quilter and teacher. I have book on quilting coming out in the next few weeks. More later….
