Normally, as a deadline approaches, I worry which quilt to finish. This time though, thanks to the half time show I just had to make this quilt with its flowing grass. What do you think? #artquilt #pieced #soldonetsy #baltimorehandmade #craftcouncil #original #art

I love it when I get inspired as I prepare for the Baltimore Craft Show. Another in my series of long wall hangings. I call this one "harbor moon". Don't you love the complex colors of teal and blue. #baltimorecraftshow #artquilt #etsy #nauticalart #craftcouncil

After set up for the Baltimore Craft Show, we took an art break to the Baltimore Museum of Art where they had one of Robert Motherwell's "Elegy for the Spanish Republic" on display. What a powerful piece and a powerful reminder. #art #craftcouncil #quilt
