In the last year, I have switched gears in my artwork to focusing on quilts and textiles.  Currently I'm using mostly Indonesian batiks as my foundation fabric.  I have acquired studio space in Studio 19 (commonly known as the glassblowing studio) in the Spanish Arts Village in Balboa Park. I have found a nice little home here and it has become a wonderful place to work and meet people from all over the world.  I get to work on my latest textile design as well as discuss art and new resources and ideas with fellow artists in the village as well as people living in and also visiting San Diego from across the globe.  I am loving it!  I have decided to get my blog going again so I can introduce you to my new work, give tutorials, show process work and express my thoughts and vision through my art. There are lots of ways you can keep up with what's going on with me and with the other artists in Studio 19 and in the Village.  The easiest way, beyond following my blog, is to follow me on Instagram @studioscumble.  I post almost daily with new projects so that's always fun to see what new thing I'm creating and the challenges that arise.  You can also contact me at studioscumble@gmail.com or through this blog!  Comments welcome!

This photo is of my boys surfboard quilt...the one that started it all!  It's made of Indonesian batiks and Hawaiian prints and was the first design I made.  After that, orders started coming in, and the wheels started turning with more ideas....  I will be adding more photos soon or other quilts, so stay tuned!  You can also buy my quilts at www.etsy.com/shop/studioscumble
