My name is Terah and I have serious addiction …. to vintage quilts. Not all vintage quilts….. Just the ones that are unfinished. Unusual. That speak to me. That need some TLC. That want to be brought back out into the light. From wherever they were hiding. To fulfill the purpose “She” intended. A […]

This was originally posted in 2011. Under the title “Vintage Quilt Blocks.” I promised you another post when I finished the backing and binding so here it is. (3 years later….. don’t judge, …. I’ve been busy) I know I’ve said this before. But this may very well be my favorite project to date. In […]

This blog post was originally published in 2012. Which was before the “Great Escape” of 2013. I finished the quilt. I’ve got my mojo back! Quilting for Karma ….. 2014 I had a treasure chest in a Justin Boot Box. I bought a whole box full of vintage quilt blocks for about $40. This is only […]

Staying with the “Our Lady” theme ….. I hope I’m not doing anything insensitive here. I’m not Catholic, but I have consulted my Catholic girlfriends, and I have spent lots of time in Mexico. I love the art form of Our Lady of Guadalupe. This is one of the fabric art panels I bought […]

Full disclosure here: I’m not Catholic. I’m Cowgirl. But if I was going to choose a religion based solely on art and visual imagery, I would totally convert. Catholics have us beat. Hands down. (Hands up actually) Not that it’s a contest or anything. Especially the Hispanic Catholics. Because they have “Our Lady”. And they […]

A really nice man bought it on my Etsy Shop for his wife. Our Lady now resides in Laguna Niguel, California. […]

I met “My Muse” in person when I made this quilt. It was a magical experience that I will never forget. I even blogged about it here. My Muse Was In The Room. This was my most favorite quilt I ever made at the time. I think it was my second one. I […]

Our Lady of Guadalupe. My process for my art is this ……. I don’t really have one. I find unusual, quirky fabrics that appeal to me. Then I lay them out in my studio and look at them for awhile. (a year) Then one day they speak to me. They say something like this …… […]

I love to doodle. I love the word doodle. I love to say the word doodle. Doodle. When I doodle on paper (which is constantly) this is what it looks like. Daydreaming. Heart shapes and swirls. I doodle in my studio when I don’t have a big project going or when I need a […]

I made this Paint Horse Pillow pillow last winter and blogged about it. One of the things I adore about blogging is the people I have met. The friends I’ve made. My friend Suzanne of Fairchild Farmgirl is an artist, mom to 8, wife to Big D, and surrogate mother to untold number of cattle, ducks, […]
