Art quilts are really fun – no rules, no boundaries! Do you go to the Quilt Festival in Houston? I usually make the trip down but won’t be able to this year. If you’ve never gone, make the chance to do so because it is great. The classes are the best part of all, though you have to sign up really early to get the really great ones. Hand dyed socks sound like fun, but don’t you have to rinse them forever to get all the excess dye out? That’s my least favorite part of dyeing.

Hi,
I’m in Texas, I have family in Valparaiso, NE. I rarely get up that way anymore. I’ve been hand dyeing about 4 years and painting less than that. I make quilts, I hand dye my clothes and socks. I get a lot of comments on my socks. If it looks like I’ll be coming to Nebraska, I’ll let you know. I’ve started playing with art quilts.

Hi Debbie,
Where do you live? I do have work that hangs at Prairie Winds Art Center in Grand Island and Graham Gallery in Hastings, plus I’ll have a booth at the Lincoln Arts Festival the end of September, so if you are close to any of those, stop on over! What do you create with your painted and dyed fabrics? How long have you been doing it?

hi,
my mom sent me the article about you from the Rural Electric Nebraskan. I also had dye and hand paint fabric. I googled you and have been looking at your work. I hope to see more work from you in the future.

Thank you so much for your kind comment; I am glad that you like the piece. It is one of my favorites. The next piece in the series, White Buffalo Woman, is slowly starting to appear on my design wall and I am getting anxious to see how she turns out.

Thanks, Anna, it does feel good to be back. I have 4 landscapes waiting to be stitched and matted, so the shove really did me some good. Will post photos after they are stitched. Take care!

Karen,
thank heavens for the shove. I kept on calling in to see when you would restart this blog. (no pressure!)
Pike’s Peak is a peaceful work; wonderful to carry it as a memory of a beautiful place.
I look forward to seeing more of your landscapes.
Don’t stress, just enjoy; it will show in your work.
