I’ve been trying my hand at trapunto. I need to put sleeves on the back so I can hang them and shoot proper pics.

Wow! The Victim is devastating and wonderful. It’s beautifully written and the acting was fantastic. It’s a really powerful and moving play. My husband and I were both blown away. If you can get to Lenox, MA go see it. It’s at Shakespeare &co until July 20th.

Good News Waits Till Morning, Phillip Schwartz, Quilt, Repurposed Damaged Quilts, 84”x72”, 2025

I just made this. I was given two antique quilts which were damaged and stained beyond repair. The figures are cut from one and appliquΓ©d to the other.

[SPECIAL EDITION] Holocaust Artist’s Hudson, N.Y., Exhibition Another Casualty of War Phillip Schwartz's Holocaust-themed artworks were to be shown at Hudson Hall. Schwartz withdrew his participation after the venue chose to add a "Muslim perspective" to the Holocaust exhibition.

This happened a while ago but I recently ran into Tambra Dillon on the street and was reminded of how badly I was treated by her and Hudson Hall's board and staff.

I love that kid! I hope when he’s old enough he’ll run for office. India still has elections, we’ll see if we do in 2028

This is an astoundingly criminal administration. They’re going to dismantle our democracy completely if we don’t stop them.

I just finished this lap quilt. The pattern is tumbling blocks, I saw one at the New England Quilt Museum. The one I saw was from 1802 and was very fancy. This one is made from old cut up shirts and gifted scraps. I’m doing a larger one with a figure on it. This one was a practice run. #quiltsky
