It's a Crazy Life - It's a Crazy Life , is a quilt about me ...some of my likes, beliefs, journeys, ...I have had endless crazy adventures that helped me evolve into who I am today. This quilt was inspired by Sharon Schamber. It's a Crazy Life I worked on before, during and after cancer treatment. It is not a perfect quilt and shows at times how I felt yet it is still me..since this photo I have done some more work on it and probably always will...

Believe Intuition Faith - There are many layers, realms, in this world ...this quilt brings it out in color for us all to see and remember to Believe when using your Intuition and Always have Faith ... Sharon and I met while teaching at Quilter's Retreat in Fortuna CA with Dixie McBride. When you meet Sharon and talk to her you immediately feel a connection and that she is a master. A master very willing to share her amazing gifts. I started drawing a design when I arrived home from teaching, it was quite different than I had seen before so I put it away. A few weeks later Sharon phoned me and told me about a dream she had with a 6 pointed star and all these beings around the star ...I told her to wait a few minutes ..I proceeded to scan in the drawing I had started and sent it to her, she said yes, that is what I saw. Sharon asked me what I was going to do with it and I told her it was to be my new quilt...I started Believe Intuition Faith twice each time on two different pieces of white and off white fabric...the day I decided I was going about this the wrong way I was missing something, Sharon phoned and ask to do Believe Intuition Faith together. The quilt started very well then I was diagnosed with cancer...the day after I was told I was cancer free I did a Jackie Chan move with a ladder breaking my right wrist. Two days before that I had received Believe Intuition Faith in the mail from Sharon to do some handwork and bead work, I had to send the quilt back to Sharon to complete...so, to make a long story short Sharon did most of the work on Believe Intuition Faith..plus applied over 6000 crystals
