Speaking of feeling empowered--you must treat yourself to the "Life Lines" exhibit by the California Fiber Artists group which opened yesterday at the Front Porch Gallery in beautiful Carlsbad. See their website www.cafiberartists.com for the details, and the pictures below for an overview of this wonderful show! 22 artists are represented with quilting, sculpture, weaving, and basketry. The show is amazing and, best of all, open until September 9th, and its free--treat yourself!
Well it felt like a birthing process!! Finally launching my web-site was definitely akin to delivering my son, and co-incidentally occurred on his birthday--well, technically it was 3:30 am the next morning but fudging that little detail makes the event more memorable! Funny how "just doing" the things you don't think you can do gives you such a rush. I feel so empowered! I can't wait to speak "site optimization" and "html script" to my 14 year-old grandson, who will either think I am oh so cool, or very weird--either way, I'm good with it.

Ricki. Congratulations on your new website and blog. It looks like everything anyone would want to know is on your site. The photos are great too. Best of luck in your future ventures. I will probably see you before the end of the year. Sometimes I like to sew with a great group of quilters instead of "home alone."

AuthorRicki Bremer's love affair with teaching starting while teaching high school and junior high. Next came 29 years as a craft and quilt shop owner, and the publication of her first book, Simple and Sensational Purses from Placemats, now in its third printing. The second book, Dual Pursenalities followed. Later additions were the Private Eyes Nursing Apron, and her latest--a microwave hot bag pattern, The AAAhhsum Bag--which has been used exclusively at the massage booth at the Road to California Show. Ricki has continued to use her easy methods to bring the joy of sewing and quilting to beginners and others. She also loves to simplify things for those ready for more challenging techniques. The Fiber Arts Retreats, which she started in 2007 formerly through the Tall Mouse, are growing and expanding to new venues, and a new name--Fiber Qwest Retreats. Ricki aims to broaden the interest and opportunities to learn and play in all areas of fiber and the creative arts. Archives
