Well, I just finished my currently favorite quilt, my daughter in a hat shop in Carmel. This was quite a fun quilt to make, with all of the hats, the tiny hats in the reflection, the creation of the sweater out of fibers with my Embellisher, the yarn hair (also with the Embellisher), the hat stands of Puff Paint, the 3-D decorations on the hats, the ribbons floating free, the shadows - just the thing for somebody with a short attention span!

So, here's what's going on in the Schmidt Studio these days......
There is vitality, a life-force, a quickening that is translated through you into action. And because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. If you block it, it will never exist through another medium. It will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is…It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. - Martha Graham
