Introducing Corryna


I was asked to join The Art Quilt Blog by Chris Daly. It is a wonderful initiative and I am glad to be part of this new community. Above you can see a collage of my work. This is what you'll see on the top of my blog http://corryna.blogspot.com. I hope you will come there to see what I have been up to too.

I began quilting in august 2007. First I joined a beginners course, that I did not finish. It did not bring me what I was looking for. Then I went to Ireland for a week, with a friend. I met a wonderful lady, that inspired and coached me: Pauline. Pauline also taught me what I needed to know for the next steps. I started to make the quilts I wanted. And I am still grateful for her support and tips. In the last few years I attend workshops from various artists. And I will continue with that, because I still feel like a beginner. There is so much more to learn. That is also why I like blogs so much. We all show and tell. We share, we give. And this enriches my life and inspires me to go on making art quilts.
