ADD 3-D EMBELLISHMENTS for texture and just plain fun.
See PHOTO ABOVE for “Embellishment: Wearable Art and Accessories” solo exhibit at Montgomery Learning Arts Center–Anita P. Folmar Gallery, August 2025. I displayed over 200 pieces with photo and sewing embellishments.
More than just quilts, I sell patterns for throws, runners, hot pads, totes, decorated clothing and gift items. I’m not only a designer, military wife, and photographer, but I taught English for 42 years. I value clear instructions . I also include lots of diagrams and photos in my patterns.
Just pay through Paypal (with credit card) and the digital pattern arrives later at your computer–it’s not automated, so give it some time to process, please!

I have seen some of your creations as a finished product and they are gorgeous. I’m looking forward to the launch of your website.

Thanks so much! It’ll take me a while to sort it all out and set up Paypal, but I’m off to a good start.
I think I may have some of your original photos of Germany that I purchased at an auction from years back! I was doing some research and found an article recently published on the ECAG website. There are three of the Berlin Wall and three of Germany’s beautiful countryside. Amazing photos!!
QUITE possible! I sold many photos of the Berlin Wall because I had a good friend who lived in Berlin–I visited her 5 times, some before the wall and some after it was down. I sold a lot at Ramstein Air Base when my husband and I lived in Landstuhl, Germany, in the 90’s. Later I sold a few in Tennessee and in Alabama. How exciting that you found me through the Elmore County Art Guild website. I’ve been a member for 15 years or so, also VP, Sec. and Treasurer at various times. Right now I’m concentrating on my sewing/quilting designs, but I’ve won over 60 awards for photography and recently gotten awards for photo quilts. I need to pull out some of my photos from Europe and scan them to make them digital, then figure out a good way to sell them on line. Thanks so much for the encouragement!
