Collaboration with Steph Kincade

Steph and I have worked together for years in opera and theatre, and I’m thrilled to work with them on this art quilt, Haven.

About Me

I’m an artist who has started quilting as a response to being covid-furloughed from my work as an opera administrator, educator, singer and designer. All posts are cat-approved. Black lives matter.

Meet Ralph

Ralph
Ralph Roister Doister is a giant 12 year old cat we adopted as a kitten from SHAID Tree Shelter in Nova Scotia. He is my constant sewing supervisor. While my husband and I have four other cats, Ralph has always been the most interested in snuggling into my fabric, and my current interest in quilting has delighted him.

Making the quilt sandwich (putting backing, quilt Making the quilt sandwich (putting backing, quilt batting and quilt top together, before final stitching) has always been the step I most dreaded.
