Colourwash Quilts Views

• Books

1992 became a very busy year for me. I became thoroughly involved with my new family - the Schneiders. The opportunity and the highlight of a one-woman show continued to add momentum to my life's journey. Part of my mandate as Folk Artist was to produce a quilt for the museum ’s permanent collection. The only stipulation given was that it somehow be linked with the traditional quilts of Waterloo County. The log cabin was chosen, as it is a block I am particularly fond of and it fit the criteria. As you can see, I approached it as a colourwash quilt.

Since that time I have published three more patterns. My patterns grow out of popular classes and original designs. The second pattern, Garden Delight, started as a class I developed giving beginning quilters the opportunity to make beautiful large colourwash quilts with only their limited knowledge of quiltmaking. It was published in 1999 and continues to be in high demand.
