Meet the Maker
Hello, thank you for taking an interest in my creations and visiting my shop. My given name is Donna but since my brother referred to me as Pippie the Hippie in the presence of my two girls, I have been renamed Pippie. I can't wait to hear my first grandbaby call me Pippie; although she has arrived, she is not talking yet.
I have been dabbling in the arts since my 2 girls went off to college and I had to find something to do to keep from going over the deep end. My husband also began working on the road around the same time and I found myself with way too much time on my hands, so I cleared out a space and began painting. Since then, I have explored almost every medium available, but I think I have found my favorite to be textiles. My mother is a quilter she also has cross-stitched, knitted & crocheted over the years. My grandmother was a quilter and crocheted, so it must be genetic. As an Aquarius, I find it difficult to follow rules and patterns and I quickly discovered quilting and knitting was not the technique for me. I do love fabric and other textiles so I began exploring the many ways they can be manipulated to create visual texture. I do love texture, when I was painting, it was all about texture. I am currently exploring painting on fabric then stitching. Oh, the many ideas! I am also a lover of books, so of course I must cover some books in fabric.
The universe has been good to me, blessing me with two beautiful daughters and I now have a granddaughter, I am over the moon in love with her.
Once again, thank you for visiting my shop and I hope you enjoy my creations as much as I enjoy creating them.
Love & Stitches,
Pippie
