    To be used, some for charity, some for home use. And because I love the creative process and seeing all those little cut up pieces of fabric slowing become something beautiful, or fun, or crazy.

    All of my quilts have been for family so far. Some day I'll make one for myself. It gives me great pleasure to see how much they like them and appreciate my efforts.

    It feeds my creative side, allows me to give something of value for charities, and those in the family who want one love getting a quilt with their focus fabrics and styles.

    My quilts are meant to be used and loved.

    For fun, relaxation,sanity, daily use, decoration, gifts, charities, but mainly because I love the feel of natural fibers. Not into shows or competitions. Have had my avatar in a fiber arts exhibition, a friend was organizing.

    I don't think I'll ever be good enough for show, but when I make a quilt it is usually to give away. I hope that they'll like it & use it.
