Have a passion for patterns and seeing how changing fashions and lifestyles are reflected in the envelope art. I am sharing with you some of the actual patterns I collected over the years. You can see more by visiting my website. From time to time, I use the patterns to make clothing for members of the family. I love seeing the clothing looking worn, that way I know they have been wearing what I made for them. Appreciate and respect fabric. I am a traditional patchwork and applique scrap quilter. All of the quilts I make - and I know I am an amateur - are for my family.
