I’ve been trying my hand at trapunto. I need to put sleeves on the back so I can hang them and shoot proper pics.

Wow! The Victim is devastating and wonderful. It’s beautifully written and the acting was fantastic. It’s a really powerful and moving play. My husband and I were both blown away. If you can get to Lenox, MA go see it. It’s at Shakespeare &co until July 20th.

Good News Waits Till Morning, Phillip Schwartz, Quilt, Repurposed Damaged Quilts, 84”x72”, 2025

I just made this. I was given two antique quilts which were damaged and stained beyond repair. The figures are cut from one and appliquéd to the other.

I just finished this lap quilt. The pattern is tumbling blocks, I saw one at the New England Quilt Museum. The one I saw was from 1802 and was very fancy. This one is made from old cut up shirts and gifted scraps. I’m doing a larger one with a figure on it. This one was a practice run. #quiltsky

Another quilt I made. Man floating, my husband allowed me to trace him to create the pattern for the figure. He’s 5’10” to give you a sense of scale.
