Calendar of some places I've been and places I've yet to go

If you want to know where I will be soon, please look below on this page.  If you want to know when I was last at your Guild, please click on this link /guilds-i-have-been-to.html to go to the Guilds I Have Been To page.
Online Classes
I was a teacher on www.QuiltUniversity.com since 2000, when that website began.  After the amazingly sad death of Carol Miller, its founder, Ruth Blanchet has taken over that responsibility, and is continuing the education of quilters on her site, www.AcademyofQuilting.com. Here is the link to the site:   http://www.academyofquilting.com  Also, here is the schedule for my upcoming classes on that site.  If you would like more information about these online classes, please see the Workshops page.  Click on this link to access that page:  /workshops.html

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

"We can do no great things, only small things with great love."  - Mother Theresa

"When the eye, the hand, and the heart come together, that's when you get the greatest art." - David Hockney
