Folio Sighting!


Back in December I posted links to tutorials I've written or various projects. My lovely sister, Karin, then emailed me photos of *11* teacher gifts she made from the junior legal pad folio project I designed for Quilting Arts! Here they are -


She personalized this one with machine embroidered monograms

I love how she used a variety of commercial fabrics to make each one unique, and tailored to the giftee. A special touch (not pictured here) is that she wrote a note to each teacher on the top most sheet of paper. Thank you, Karin, for sharing these!

Foto/Fiber 2012 Sneak Peek

Happy Belated New Year!  A major computer crash and some deadlines temporarily sidelined me, but I'm back with a tiny sneak peek of part of what I'll be donating for Foto/Fiber 2012, February 15 and 16.

Soon to be quilted!
Foto/Fiber 2012  is a Fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. It's part of Fiberart For A Cause, which has already donated over $215,000 to the American Cancer Society through the generosity of fiber artists and their patrons. See more details at
