Quilts + Color: Dining Chairs Finished
http://quiltspluscolor.blogspot.com/2015/08/dining-chairs-finished.html
Sunday, August 9, 2015. I finally finished recovering all 4 dining room chairs. I am pleased with the way they turned out. I would be more pleased if I had read the information thoroughly when I ordered my staple gun. I somehow assumed it was an electric staple gun…aren’t they all? Oh, no, this was manual and took more strength than I had, especially since I was dealing with the padding which was on the underside when I used it to staple the fabric. August 9, 2015 at 9:18 PM. Am i losing my grip? Hey, He...

I know, this is my 3rd blog post today but I couldn’t help myself! I started this blog in September 2008 and had no idea what I was going to do with it. Now it is my personal diary that I share.

Quilts + Color: Quilts–Up Close And Personal
http://quiltspluscolor.blogspot.com/2015/08/quiltsup-close-and-personal.html
Tuesday, August 4, 2015. Quilts–Up Close And Personal. Sharing the view of the quilts on the studio stairwell did not necessarily give you a great opportunity to see each of the quilts well. Perfect Harmony is the only quilt I have ever shibori dyed fabric with a plan to make a specific quilt. It worked amazingly well. The title refers to the harmony of the shibori pattern and the quilting design. I’m so glad I have it in my stair well/office area in the studio so I can look at it often. JANUARY 29, 2017.

Quilts + Color: Modern Quilts On Display In Studio Stairwell
http://quiltspluscolor.blogspot.com/2015/08/modern-quilts-on-display-in-studio.html
Wednesday, August 5, 2015. Modern Quilts On Display In Studio Stairwell. I always said I didn’t GET Modern Quilts and what qualifies. After studying them a lot more I think both of these fit the parameters. On the left: For Never Plaid. On the right: For Never Plaid 2. Both of these quilts were a challenge to piece as nothing is straight and the blocks were different shapes and sizes. I eventually make them fit together and make cohesive compositions.

Quilts + Color: Black And White Shawl/Scarf
http://quiltspluscolor.blogspot.com/2015/08/black-and-white-shawlscarf.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2015. Black And White Shawl/Scarf. It’s impossible to stretch this out to length and get a picture so I kind of scrunched it up on the table. It is quite a large shawl that can cover my back, arms and front. It is so soft, lightweight and warm. I was wearing black and white when I finished this and it is the perfect touch. I can fold it up into a little bundle and if fits in my purse, ready to wear when I arrive somewhere where the air conditioning is set too cold. JANUARY 29, 2017.

Quilts + Color: April 2015
http://quiltspluscolor.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 30, 2015. Using Procion dyes on silk makes it next to impossible to get black fabric. When a friend said she DID get black I did an experiment with many silk fabric in my possession. Since I was doing a big black bucket of cotton fabrics I put samples of each fabric, some bound, some loose in the bucket. There are a few patches of solid black, but I got a lot of green colorations. Labels: hand dyed fabric. Tuesday, April 28, 2015. Ice Circles 1 Is Quilted. Sunday, April 26, 2015. I took m...

Quilts + Color: New Gallery Of Quilts On Studio Stairwell
http://quiltspluscolor.blogspot.com/2015/08/new-gallery-of-quilts-on-studio.html
Sunday, August 2, 2015. New Gallery Of Quilts On Studio Stairwell. My son Greg was able to hang the 5 new quilts last night. Although the picture is a little dark, they look great. They are much more colorful than the last group. With the exception of the largest quilt all of these are "relatively" new quilts. I will try to get some better photos that are truer to color. How lucky for you that he could hang those beautiful quilts. They warm the space. August 2, 2015 at 7:20 PM. JANUARY 29, 2017. Borderin...

Quilts + Color: Fairfield Fashion Show Garment
http://quiltspluscolor.blogspot.com/2015/05/fairfield-fashion-show-garment.html
Wednesday, May 20, 2015. Fairfield Fashion Show Garment. This is the other garment I designed for the Fairfield Fashion show years ago. The patchwork fabric is composed of fabric using my original technique of Tubular Spiral Patchwork. The sleeveless coat is my original design pattern. In addition for all the solid color cottons I included some copper and silver gold lame. I placed them between similar colors so as not to interrupt the color flow. A flattering design for any figure. JANUARY 29, 2017.

Quilts + Color: My Wearable Art Patterns
http://quiltspluscolor.blogspot.com/2015/05/my-wearable-art-patterns.html
Friday, May 22, 2015. My Wearable Art Patterns. I’ve had a request from a friend to show the patterns from my pattern company. Almost all of them (and the most popular) are the wearable art patterns. I’m going to share some of them with you on this post. This photo was taken at a style show of my designs in Michigan. It features my 5 models and myself. In case you don’t recognize me I’m third from the left. Here is another shirt made from the pattern. In my opinion no one is an XL. May 22, 2015 at 6:34 AM.
