So here it is. I've been meaning to do this for some time but couldn't decide if I had anything to say someone else would want to read.
But I'm pretty sure there are plenty of sewing/quilting folk out there who have cluttered and/or messy sewing spaces. Things you've piled "over there" until you can get to them, or "just put in here" until you find the right project…

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.
Let me tell you how lazy I am when it comes to my quilting. If the piece doesn't fit I slash it down until it does! I look at quilts that have 500 little bitty pieces and think No way! If I was cutting they would get bigger and bigger. I always tell my kids not to show the stuff I give them to any other quilters because they would find my mistakes. I always start out aiming for perfection and somehow it gets left by the wayside. Believe me, I won't be winning any prizes for my quilts but I do enjoy the craft.
