About me

I’m a mild mannered insurance brokerage employee by day and a crafter by night.  My husband and I  live just outside Toronto, in Ontario, Canada.

I enjoy quilting, knitting and other crafts.  I do have a mantra of “no new crafts” so I do work at keeping the “other craft” category as small as possible. It’s working – somewhat, though the supply of beading supplies does seem to be growing. However, my craft of choice, and the one with which I’m the most obsessed is quilting.

The main purpose of this blog is to have a place to have a record of the various things I’m in the process of creating or have created.

When I quilt I’m all about bright colours and scrap quilting. I love sewing with 2″ squares which worries me somewhat, but it could be scarier, as I could be obsessed with even smaller squares.

    I love your quilts! Here I thought there was something wrong with me for liking 2″ and 2½” squares so much. Is it a Canadian thing? hahaha
    Gives us something to do in lockdown, though.
    Cheers from Ottawa.

    Hi, I think I may have your dancing nine patch lap quilt. Did you donate it to a care facility in Pickering? My mother received it Christmas morning 2019. Sadly, she passed away on the 29th, so it’s precious to me, as I had spread it on her those last few days. Your work is beautiful, and I love all the colours!! Thank you very much for your labour of love! (I’m a quilter too. Ü)
