    Default Hello! A Floorquilter From New Mexico (Desert Southwest)

    Hi! everyone. My name is Carolyn, and I love making floorquilts--No-sew fabric decoupaged floorcloths. I started making these walkable works of art over a year ago, and could not stop. My workshop is located in the scenic desert southwest, and is surrounded by beauty and inspiration. Because floorquilting with protective coatings is a newer craft, which so many quilters (both traditional & art) are interested in. What is especially nice, is that you can use your scrap remnants of fabric to construct these durable and appealing floorquilts--art quilts that you can actually walk on, and that will not wear-or-tear. Our floors, you could say, allow us, yet, another place to showcase our favorite fabrics and quilt designs. Happy quilting!
