| Introduction | Visit my blog on creativity: www.paulamariedaughter.com! Fascinated by fabric from my girlhood I’ve found my creative home in quilting. My talented mother, Marie, loved creating with fabric and I believe this love is in my genes or at least in my Scotch-Irish heritage. Almost thirty years ago I made my first quilt--a baby quilt for my sister Lea’s young son, but it was not until 1994 that I had the time to begin quilting with a passion. That year I met Lila Rostenberg who had recently opened a quilt shop in nearby Fayetteville AR and found a friend and mentor. Two hundred quilts later I still feel the excitement of playing with fabric in my mind and on the design board. Historical quilts thrill me, batiks fascinate me and bold plaids call to me. Many of my quilts are scrapbook quilts or memory quilts full of visuals and vital events in my life. Perhaps I can describe myself as a visual historian. I want to record happenings and thoughts and attitudes that shape my life. Quilting is my grand adventure! |
