EmergingWhen I was in my early teens I had a teacher who believed I should pursue a writing career. While I do think I am able to turn a phrase or two once in awhile and have a fairly prolific vocabulary, to be a writer requires a tremendous amount of desire and passion. A task I didn't seem to be able to wrap my heart and soul around.
Be that as it may, I am very happy to announce that at this ripe old age I have become a published writer - albeit not fiction. The April/May issue of Quilting Arts magazine will feature an article I penned (with Melanie's editorial assistance http://my-croft.blogspot.com/ - thank you, my friend!) that highlights a couple of my art quilts and outlines the painting technique I use to create many of my art quilts.
One never, ever knows what paths this life will take us down.

Congratulations. I look forward to the article.
Yay! I'm def going to buy that issue! Well, truth be told, I buy them all anyway...it's my little secret. I buy quilting magazines and don't quilt.
Love the new piece. And loved the Croft blog
Congratulations! Can't wait to get my hands on the next issue!

i love this piece, beautiful colors! and congrats on the publication!!!! i am trying to get my hands on a copy of the mag locally :)
This is a simply stunning piece!
And I can't wait for the new issue! I've always wondered how you did your backgrounds, and it's a great opportunity to be able to learn straight from the master herself! (Perhaps I should mail you my copy of the issue for an autograph?) :p
