A Very Useful Gift

17 February 2006 Filed Under: Quilt Photography, Technique:Design

I was reading Melody Johnson’s blog,Fibermania, back in January (her 27 January post to be precise) in which she remarks: The digital camera really has made such a difference in the way I work these days, with opportunities to change the way I view something or by printing out the image and making changes on […]

Cover Girl

15 February 2006 Filed Under: Profile

Let’s Talk

10 February 2006 Filed Under: Profile

Late last year, I participated in the Friday Showcase program organised by The Quilters Guild of NSW and presented a selection of my quilts along with an account of my personal quilting journey. It was such a positive experience with many in the audience making kind comments and sharing their own insights. I really appreciated […]
