Double Reverse Appliqué “in” Ann Arbor
I did a second fun Zoom class with the Ann Arbor gals. This time it was Double Reverse Appliqué. They made great progress. Just look. Jennifer chose muted colors and they worked beautifully.

Composing with Indigo
Being blessed with a bunch of indigo fabrics, I was ready to make an art piece with them. I knew I’d like to add an accent color, but which one? After some auditioning, I decided on the pink/orange family. But, how to best use these wonderful designs? I didn’t really want to cut into them,…
