I have been a home sewer since age 10, making all my own clothes and craft projects throughout my early professional career. As a professor of theatrical design I taught costume, scene and light design and designed professionally in the educational and off-Broadway theatre for 15 years. When limiting my teaching career to speech (and giving up the theatre) 20 years ago I moved to custom bridal and formal dressmaking, specializing in formal wear for special sizes or fit problems. When I completed my Ph.D. I learned to quilt, a life-long dream and one, only then, I had time to pursue. I was thrilled at both the simplicity and the complexity of the art and immediately found it to be as potent a creative outlet as my theatrical design had once been.
My specialty is design that captures the themes and colors of nature, the exuberance and joy of color in small to medium sized quilt designs which look complex and daring, but can be accomplished quickly and easily with shortcuts and clever techniques. I consider myself the “Busy Woman’s Designer.” I write patterns that a beginner can do but are so much more than just squares and triangles. I also teach EQ as a way for people without drawing or math skills to craft spectacular designs that customize their ideas and materialize their creative impulses.
I have published more than 20 patterns, and have quilt patterns appearing in more than 10 magazine issues, with more on the way. My designs have been published in two books, and I have supplied an annual free Block of the Month on my blog and Website. I publish free EQ downloads and tutorials on my blog and retail EQ products on my website. I am working on a book proposal of original designs which I hope to have ready this spring.
