Many have asked for smiles, I take photo with laptop use chin

to hold while my hand clicks on the camera icon. If you see me smiling probably taken with camera or someone else took photo.

Dover, NJ is anywhere near Camden? I know of a quilter who hates her job but being a single homeowner has no choice but to work. She admires my time at home doing my hobby. For me health issues limit me to casual low pay jobs. But I agree it is great to be home sewing, and work only when we can..

Great to hear from you, Charlotte!  Great idea, and probably true.  However I've learned that color monitors read differently.  ....so what we should probably do is just all get together with our fabrics, right?  :D

Charlotte nothing like sitting down to a bowl and eating steel cut oats opening up your email and seeing all these wonderful comments. You are for one thing a hoot. Your personality matches your art your comments were great fun to read. You are right they are my gardens I am so glad you took the time to see my photos. I used to post alot then ended up getting busy. This is a great group of people to chat with it is wonderful to see new members and what they bring to Quilt with us. hope to see more of your work and posts!

I found you through Pam in NY page I love your artistic take on quilting, how you take the traditional and and create such a diverse interpretion of fabric play. I am so glad that you have posted so many pictures of your works they are all so different and it was a great slide show thanks!

Char, I looked at all your quilts and other projects and they are wonderful. I've been quilting since '06 and am self taught. I sew for project Linus and have made about 400 quilts for donations. Material and batting are donated and we just pick out what we want and sew to our hearts content. But, I do quilts for family and friends too.

Char - I just remember laughing out loud when you made a comment back then about the "perky" bosoms he gave you.  :D Oh if only we could "see" us the way our grandkids do.  I'd say he inherited his parents' gift for illustration.  

I always enjoy looking through your quilt photos.  Wonderful projects!

Hi Char-my mom put the black in black shoe polish hair...teased as high as you could get it. We bought Aqua net hairspray by the case! then there were the eyeglass frames!! yikes...

Hi Charlotte, Thank you for the note and great timing.   I was just looking at the technique swap a few minutes ago and debating...Hmmm...what could I make? what technique(s) could I use?  I will definitely have to come up with something and in the meantime I'm off to check out the post card group.  Postcards really are fun to make.
