A House on the Hill A shady little spot where I can post my humble attempts at art and life.
I write about quilting, crochet, knitting, my DH, my dog, life & whatever else pops into my mind.
Quilting from needle turned applique
to Improv quilts. Currently learning
how to dye and paint fabric which will
be incorporated into my quilts and craft
projects. I am a member of a Quilting
Guild in my area and also help organize
a Quilt History Study Group.
Originally I'm from Long Island, New York
and am now living in beautiful Lancaster
County, Pennsylvania.
I am not from a Quilting Family so I
took my first lesson when I moved here -
which was needle turned applique, which
I love. There is plenty of inspiration
here in Lancaster County between the Amish
and Mennonite quilts. Also from the landscape
which is so different from Long Island where
you are surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean.
Here, there are wonderful hills and valleys
- beautiful scenic views and of course there
is water - the Susquehanna River.
Discovering Improv quilts was such a delight
for me. I love piecing intuitively because
You never know what your imagination will
come up with. I am a fan of Nancy Crow -
who "is a pioneer of the modern art quilt
movement."
