Lori’s Notebook

A Legacy of Art and the Old Country

February 9, 2015

Following the death of my 100 year old grandfather, I find myself, a few months later, helping my mother and my aunt packing up my grandparents’ house. A hundred years of stored memories, papers, photographs, furniture, and most of my grandmother’s life work as an artist. It has been an amazing process of unearthing a century of my legacy.

Among the items packed away in the basement was this beautiful zither and this leather-bound set of Goethe’s works in German.

Leland’s Room

March 18, 2014

More than anything this post is about capturing a moment in time, and one that is soon to change. I walked into my 10-year old son’s room the other day and wanted to capture the feeling of his room, knowing that the teen years are fast approaching. And when that happens, who knows, I may not even be allowed into his room at all!

From Lori’s Notebook

  • Mark’s van der Rohe

    It’s not often that the clothing I receive for my memorial quilts so clearly reflects a person’s passion and life work.

  • Louisa’s Eclipse

    I believe many of us from a certain generation can relate to having held on to a box of our mother’s or grandmother’s table linens which we don’t have the heart to discard, nor do we want to bust out our irons every time we have a dinner party.

  • A Tartan for Tasmania

    After having successfully shipped my most recent quilt all the way to my client Sigrid in Tasmania, I can officially say that my work has made its way across the world.
