This is a sampler quilt I pieced while I took a beginning quilter's class in Mobile, Alabama.

This is a strip or string pieced quilt I made during a very difficult and stressful time. The only thing that kept me feeling grounded was sewing the colorful strips of fabric onto the paper foundations. I made dozens of them and when I began piecing them together I thought, "That looks like the old fashioned Crazy Quilts." And then I realized, "No! This is my SANITY QUILT!" Thus the quilt's title - and my continued use of quilting to keep myself grounded and sane through good times and not so good times.
