I teach sewing to kids (ages 9- up) during the summer @ Broadway Quilts in the town of Sonoma. It's wonderful to see the excitement and pride that the kids show when they are learning, doing and finishing their bags. It's especially rewarding when a student becomes so enchanted with their success and accomplishment. These a pincushions that I made for the goody bag each receives the last day of class.

More Love
You may have heard of the fires in Northern California last summer (2015). It was devastating for the entire community affected by this storm of fire. Some parts of a neighborhood would be burned away on one side of the street, and the homes on the other side of the street were perfectly fine. It was amazing. I can not imagine what it would be like if someone knocked at my door and said you have a minute to get out. The community around Cobb and Middletown rallied together to help those homeless, to help the animals and the children. it's devastating to lose everything. One of the efforts that was made was to make quilts for the children. The goal was to collect 400 quilts to give to pre-K through second grade. Well the community came together and quilts came in from all over the country. 860 quilts were donated . The quilts were brought to the local schools before Christmas, and the children had the opportunity to pick out that they wanted .
