How many photos are too many? from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

I sewed for a good part of the day, but I was in slow motion mode, and that's OK. I managed to get all the homework done for the class last night and the two classes this morning. OK -- that's a lie. While I did get the homework done for last night and the presentation went together, I still need to make 7 more blocks for The Butterfly quilt. I was thinking I'm doing great - I've got everything cut. Then I realized that we needed to make EIGHT blocks, not four, so back to the cutting ...

When good technology goes BAD! from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

I was going to say there is nothing quilt-related today, but that would be a lie. There is something --just wait for it.

Yesterday, I thought I was going to go mad because of technology. I love my smartphone, and like all of you, I use it a fair bit. But yesterday, I was ready to throw in the towel. Why? Not because of the phone -- oh no -- I LOVE my phone. Nope -- look at what happened.

My New Background for Photos from From Edge 2 Edge

I currently have a gray flannel design wall that I attach my quilts to take photos. The only problem with that color is that I have been working with fabric that is similar in value around the edges of my quilts. When using software to remove the background it would invariably remove part of my quilt. I would then have to manually try to remove around the edge of the quilt. Not fun. (I used to have white but that didn't work all that well either. Mostly because of white fabric in the quilt, threads, lint, etc attaching to ...

Work, Work, Work from From Edge 2 Edge

I spent yesterday and today updating both of David's and my gallery area. That means I took pictures of our most recent quilts, put them into Photoshop to crop and clean the background out and do the write-ups.

I got to measure them, do all the calculations for pricing, and put all the information into Artwork Tracker. That was the easy part. Once I had all the work done it was just cut and paste the text, link the photos, and fill out the form. Most of the options are already in drop down boxes since I tend to ...

Inspiration in everything! from Creating Chaos

I'm often asked what inspires my work. Well, how long have you got?

There really isn't an easy answer to this as I'm inspired by so many things. Sometimes I get so much inspiration from one thing that it leads to a series of work. This was so when I began to see rusty objects over and over again and the more I saw, the more I noticed rust in many other places. This overload of inspiration lead to two series - Corrosion, which was inspired by the rust itself, and Oxidisation, which used fabric and threads dyed ...
