I love to travel all over the globe shopping for textiles to add to my wearable art. I have taught quilting to school children in Nepal, seminole patchwork to seamstresses in Thailand, and jackets and embellishment to quilters in Turkey where I also served as a judge at 2 of their International Quilt Shows. I have created garments for 5 Fairfield and Bernina Fashion Shows and teach classes on embellishment and wearable art. Lately I have been leaning more toward making art quilts.

Jacket Class at Marcia's Studio Day One
Yesterday was the first day of another great jacket class at Marcia DeCamp's beautiful studio. The weather favored us with only a few showers and not the possible snow. Caris Burton is preparing a pattern for another of her beautiful subtle silk jackets.
Some of Caris's fabric.
Caren Betlinski began the day by finishing up a jacket she started in a previous class and Liz Scott started a jacket with a Halloween theme.
After Caren finished work on the jacket she started a vest with a red and black colorway.
And Nancy Crouch started a jacket with a beautiful fabric by Sherrill Khan as the focus.
Caris's jacket betins to take shape.
Marcia worked on the start of a jacket using fabric given to her by Marcia Murphy.
Caren's finished jacket incorporating her fabulous threadwork flowers.
Another gorgeous flower on the back.
