renegade QUILT(er)





Check out my first quilt. I don't know the first thing about quilts. But I am a scrap collector. This one contains sentimental pillow cases, old boxers, a ruined tablecloth, a tattered tapestry and other odds and ends. It has a fleece throw inside and it's quite cute in person. Sorry, this one's not for sale BUT I do enjoy renegade quilting!

Pear Tree

My blog is becoming less about art and my life and more of a "OMG. Look what I found growing just down the street from me." But I'm wondering when the novelty of fruits, berries and flowers growing wildly, colorfully and abundantly will wear off. I was in Tucson for 34 years. So maybe 34 years here?

Thrilled to bits,
amanda

Blueberry Picking

In one of my past lives I was definitely a farmer. I loved picking blueberries today. So peaceful and slow-paced and sunny. We had such a lovely day today!
