Lincolnton Piecemakers

“Hold on My Heart….Throw Me a Lifeline ”  is a healing quilt for my family.

“We Fix Broken Hearts” was created to honor those who heal.  It is a collage of a broken heart being put back together, piece by piece.  The hand images were traced from those of my son’s cardiologists.

Twist and Shout

I spent a lovely morning recently with the Lincolnton NC Piecemakers guild.  They were a gracious and attentive audience for my “Journey of a Quiltmaker” trunk show.  The presentation follows my evolvement from traditional quiltmaker to one whose works speak for me.  My quilts come from my heart and soul.

Everyone pitched in to help pack up quuickly.  After all, we were headed to The Lincoln House for lunch. laughter and good conversation.    Food and laughter?  I’m IN!

Thanks, Piecemakers, for your hospitality.  I had a great time.
