Project Funway; 4 so far!




I've been asked to show the other Project Funway pieces I created as Journal Quilts, so here they are; Betty Beach; Penny Proper and Fancy Nan. They are a little bit of foolishness; quick and fun!

New title on last piece

I decided to change sunset sail to Catching the Wind. I also put a narrow binding on it and I think it looks better. Now......what will I work on next!

Catching the Wind: From photo to fiber


I have just about finished this piece. I have to do my final triming and then I think I will face it , rather than bind it. I usually like to post my photo and then my fiber, but as you can see, there is a sun bather on deck, which surprised me. I am not going to post the pictue. It was the color of the sails, against the water and sky, that caught my eye. What do you think?

Cool but sunny Morning in NH

It is cool this morning, but looks like it will be a nice day, before the rain starts tomorrow. I am working on a new piece, that will be called Sunset Sail, I think. As usual for me, it's based on a photo that I took while out on our boat, fishing with my husband. You be surprised by some of the spectacular views, some surprizing, that you see through your camera lense. Hope to have this piece completed soon, and up on my blog.

Four Pieces to Fiber Fest, Exeter, NH


It's October 1st, and chilly in New Hampshire. Yesterday I dropped four of my fiber art pieces at the Exeter Town Hall Gallery, for their annual Fiber Fest. There will be a variety of fiber related items, made by local artists. I have a variety of submissions, ranging from my large equestrian piece, "Morning Ride,'' plus "Beach Blossums," "New England Winter," and "Winter Beach," pictured here. All are for sale, except Morning Ride, which is a family piece.
