I tried to explain Quilting to him, but he didn't understand so I said, let me show you a quilt. I opened the trunk and we had show and tell right on the road side, Drowning Bear draped across his bike and the sun shining against the brightest blue sky.

The Day diary of a Textile Art Tutor. - Capture and Create.
It's so nice being home. I have another day of teaching today with a group of ladies who honour me with their presence. I'm always humbled and I still have the feeling of amazement that someone actually waits in anticipation, prepares and packs their supplies to come to one of my classes. When those ladies arrive laden with their machines and large overflowing bags of fabric, notions and the latest equipment I do a little mental dance.
Vintage and Antique, quilts and textiles. - Capture and create.
Visiting an antique mall is more than that, I'm looking for colors and patterns and I just use my camera. This dress below is a 30's dress. I love the free, and the combination of colors in the pattern.
Capture and create - two special events in June.
Monday, June 22, 9 am - 4:30 pm I'm going to take you on a the bus ride of your life, grab your camera and see the world through my eyes and then I will share my 'Capture and Create' ideas. How do you make a quilt from the images.Experience a scenic bus tour unlike any other with Pam Holland, visiting off-the-map sites and capturing the simple beauty the area offers. Enjoy the splendor of area backroads as you experience an Amish schoolhouse, shop house, hand-painted barn quilts, and so much more.
Observations and Exercises.
The Lady is called Catherine, she worked for two months and made this embroidery from 4 panels woven on the backstop loom. I visited the family and bought her delightful piece. Thats the beginning of the story, part of the tory behind the quilt. The end will be when I finish and share the quilt.
