Improvisational Textiles : A Collaborative Art Quilting Journey

I never get tired of this tree every time I hike Pilot Butte

“Recycled Love” is done. Just need to finalize the Artist Statement and will share on the tierneycreates blog 😀 (it seems like it took forever to hand stitch)

For those of you who’ve followed my tierneycreates blog for awhile - the “Love Ducks” are back and wandering the neighborhood!

A beautiful Monday hike with “Laurie & Luna” on the Cascade Highlands Trail. I’ve lived in Central Oregon 12+ years and it seems like there are endless new trails/hikes to experience!

The trees are budding - this makes me happy!

Terry the Quilting Husband (TTQH) watching the college basketball semifinals with Mike and a visiting recently rescued 10 year old miniature schnauzer girl, Sadie (her person was in the back room at a “Scrap Party” 😀

This is what madness looks like! All my scraps dumped down on my bed awaiting a play date with my friend Betty Anne who got me into this addiction!

Evening walk - rainbow around the setting sun

After reading a great article on why I should not store my thread out in the open (and lint/dust up my beloved Aurifil thread) I took the threads racks down. Instead I have up a lovely piece made from recycled silks by Betty Anne Guadalupe!

Finally getting this beautiful quilt, made as a gift for me by my quilting sister Kathy, up on my studio wall!

Oh my goodness I love this town - It’s a beautiful day for a hike on Pilot Butte in Central Oregon

Mike stayed with his schnauzer friends Chopper and Frieda while we were out of town. Frieda and Chopper’s people sent us this “Three Amigos” photo 😀

Preview of tierneycreates post to come - wool appliqué class with Kathy Cardiff - while at Trends this past weekend

The art quilting group I belong had a fabric printing play date today, tierneycreates post to come (these are some of the pieces I made today)

Mike the Mini enjoying some surprisingly beautiful weather

Inside the covered bridge at Shevlin Park – wouldn’t this make a great art quilt inspiration

I love antique typewriters displayed in Indie book stores!

Be still my beating heart - a little mini girl visited our house today - My friend Betty Anne brought her new rescued seven-year-old miniature Schnauzer Sadie by andTerry and I are in love! While she was visiting she did a little human management with us and we realized how much we miss being managed by a little schnauzer girl!

On a winter hike today with one seriously adorable Bernese Mountain Dog!

I found my ultimate fabric at Sew expo ( well if you are a Bernina lover) 😀
