My name is Susie Black and I live in the beautiful Rockport-Fulton community in South Texas. I am passionate about anything fabric related - sewing, quilting, embroidery, fabric painting and especially fabric collecting! I love vintage fabrics, old linens, old samplers, hankies and neckties and I am always trying to incorporate these things into my work. I am a big believer in out of the drawer or attic and into the present where the memories these items invoke can come out and make new memories. It is my pleasure to share my ideas and enthusiasm with others.
