THE QUILT SHOW with Ricky Tims and Alex Anderson
I was invited to tape shows on both my vessels and my pop ups! It was great fun, and Alex and Ricky made it all so easy. The shows aired on 17 July 2022 (series #3102) The pop up is a replica of the studio set for The Quilt Show, my thank you card to the whole crew.
Thanks for all the wonderful comments about the show and my book!
New Presentations
Highland Lakes Quilt Guild May 17 &18, 2023
I will be speaking at the guild's monthly meeting, "Fabric and Form". This time it is a combination trunk show, demo and presentation of 3 D fabric pop ups. I am also teaching a 1 day Pop Ups workshop for the guild.
Santa Clara Valley Quilters Presentation 23 October, Workshop 24 October 2023
The workshop will focus on 3D fabric vessels or sculptures. Participants will learn my basic process for making 3D fabric forms, design their own vessel, and complete it in the 2 day workshop. The presentation will cover both vessels and pop up and preview my latest series - Fabric Bonsais!
Just for Giggles...
I've been playing with EVA foam and made a Blue Dragon. It's a chair back cover for my son-in-law's Dungeon and Dragon game room. The eyes have LED lights and the wings are movable. Stay tuned for more fantastic creatures and adventures with EVA!

"Living" Wall
36" H X 24" W X 6" D
3 Dimensional Fiber Art
I've always wanted to have a real living wall of plants in my house. However the poor lighting and lack of water source meant it would not work. After creating my Bonsai series, I realized I could sew a "living" wall of fabric plants. They don't require good light, water or soil -- and they won't die!
This piece has lead me to a new path of sewing plants. I am now working on a new book "Fabric and Form: How to Sew an Indoor Garden" on schedule for late 2023. It will teach how to sew, quilt, crochet, knit, and embroider house plants, flower boxes, living wall panels, and even a Fairy Garden! Stay tuned...

Shards II
This is an update of my very first vessel, Shards: Self Portrait as Pottery, made in 2010. Shards II showcases a lot that I have learned in making many vessels since then. It will also be in the Faces of Fiber in the Rockies exhibit.
