About

This is a collection of my more ambitious projects. I am currently sewing jackets of various kinds, somewhat inspired by watching Korean dramas with heroines who seem to have a different coat to wear every day.

Making quilts is a little more straightforward, since there are fewer fitting issues, although surprises can still occur. I mostly create my own designs, but occasionally embrace a traditional pattern.

Before taking up quilting, I was upgrading the lighting in our house to use LEDs. The machine shop at the local community college was a fantastic resource and I did most of the metalwork for the light fixtures there.

I like a good project that pushes me out of my comfort zone so I become more skilled at making things warm and bright.
