2014 Embroidery Calendar Coming Soon!

A Minute of Spring

It's been cold and rainy here...which is a good thing. The rain will bring out the beautiful desert flowers!

A Colorful Heart Quilt

I love quilting! I actually love every part of quilting from picking out the fabrics to adding the binding. This quilt came to be because applique is one of my favorite methods of making a quilt. I have collected a wide assortment of fabric and as I was sorting through some of it one day I started setting aside certain pieces. Hand-dyed fabrics have so much dimension and possibilities. As I imagined using all of the fabrics I had chosen all I could think about was a heart made with beautiful flowers. So I designed this wall quilt and named it,

A Colorful Heart.

Flowers, Water, and Clouds

After organizing a large portion of the pictures I took in Colorado I decided to put a few them on my blog because they are so beautiful and inspiring. It was difficult to pick out just these few --so you will see more of them in random posts --enjoy!

Can you hear the sound of the water...

These flowers covered the hillsides and valleys

So eerie...the mountain just peeking through the clouds

This is Bridal Veil falls just above Telluride.

I love the starkness of this area.

Even the weeds in Telluride are beautiful!
