The (not so) Dramatic Life – Quilting, Sewing, and Textile Arts from a Theatre Designer's Perspective
I love to create. For me this takes many forms with this blog mostly focussing on my life as a fiber artist. My mother taught me to sew starting around the age of three or four (the details are a bit fuzzy!) I learned to quilt first, then I started sewing clothes, and quilted clothes. After that I entered a career where I spent a lot of time sewing clothing as well as other things. I have recently returned to the quilt world, and I am excited to share my adventures with you.
