Bio
Hi, my name is Karen and I'm really excited about quilts, fabric, color and design. Although, I went to school to be a grades teacher and spent 10 years doing so, my heart has always been drawn to art and textiles. Growing up with beautiful, sweet grandmother who surrounded (although never really taught) my siblings and I with love and all things crafty, I have a strong bond for the charm of quilts and handmade goods. In my now grown up world I find myself drawn to a variety of art and modern design. My work tends to be a blend of both, I think of it as "charming modern" or is it "modern charm"! Whatever you call it, one thing is for certain, it's always changing! My impulsive nature and love of variety compels me to create work that is a manifestation of what I'm feeling on a given day, week, month. I'm completely self taught, so I share not only my quilting successes but also the process of learning as I go. Although my creative journey, is a huge guiding element in my life, my three daughters are my most cherished inspiration. In this blog space you'll find me talking mostly about creating quilts, a bit of knitting, some random crafty thoughts, but it wouldn't be complete for me, without the occasional mention of my outings with my three little "bloomingpoppies".
Thanks for visiting. I kindly invite you to join me on this creative journey. I very much appreciate comments and try most times to respond to them.
Have a beautiful, inspired day!!!
