About Me

My photo
Welcome to the Backwoods Art Quilts Blog! I have been drawing, sewing, painting, and quilting for many years, but fiber art is my passion. I love all the creative options available to the fiber artist - there are so many ways to express an idea, a cherished photo or a favorite memory! It combines all the creative ventures I've been doing all my life - as well as dyeing fabric and altering photos. There is so much more to learn and so many things to try! I will share my journey - much of which will be trial and error! as I continue to learn everything I can about fiber art! Please visit my Etsy site - http://www.etsy.com/shop/BackWoodsArtQuilts
