A snippet about creative Pamela!

Throughout my adult life my creativity was expressed by

  • sewing clothing for myself and friends
  • knitting (rather badly)
  • making pottery (with a good teacher)
  • enamelling jewellery (this was fun and made me some money)
  • cooking with gusto (the family love me!)

Then in 2001 I attended a quilting class. My first challenge was to make a sampler quilt - queen size! It was a labour of love which slowly left me drift towards making art-quilts. Confession time - I am addicted! You will see over time how my textile creating diverts through a whole range of mediums. Currently I am enjoying dyeing fabric and yarns to create complex cloth that form the basis of art-quilts.

Quilts for babies is also a specialty and these are made on consignment. Art quilts are for sale and are on show at the Wild Lime Cafe & Gallery in the Flinders Ranges, South Australia.
