Joanna Cohen: Dear Dijanna,
Your quilts are absolutely beautiful. I am getting married this July and I am looking for a quilt to be married under (like a chuppah). We loved the pomegranate design (among others) but we were wondering if you had any larger quilts (160x 160cm) for sale?
Thank you so much

It will be my great treat after spending 7 weeks with family. I then fly back to the uk . Will you have your first and second books at the show ,or is there anywhere in the Melbourne area I could get them. I'm bringing a gift quilt over so I will have a weight allowance!!!

janina nowak: Came to you through The Fiber Connection and earlier Lisa Call's blog. Here I am in Melbourne, not knowing of you prior to today, and now I have looked at some of your work, and am highly impressed with what you do and how you 'see'. I particularly like the If Hundertwasser... piece and the Banksia piece. But, then, I liked all the ones I saw! Have now created an Arts & Crafts links list to my blog, "purely photographic", and added The Fiber Connection home page to it, as well as your PictureTrail albums page.

Jeannie Evans-Van Hoff: Hi,I have been reading your blog for the past five months and I do wish that I had you for a neighbor! I love your work and was wondering if you planned on publishing a book soon? Please let me know if one is in the works. I am also doing the 10,000 step program. I live in Eastern Washington state, which is quite arid (6" of rain/year) and we have many walking paths along our river. Isn't it nice to be out in nature and let the mind float! May your feet be happy. Cheers, Jeannie

Breng je het mee, als je naar Nederland komt. Ik zie je vast ergens, in ieder geval op de tentoonstelling. Ik verheug me er op je weer te zien.
Groetjes, Nelly

ina klugt - berghuis: Hoi Dijanne,
Vanmiddag heb ik de tifaifai weer opgepakt die ik vorig jaar bij je in Borger hebt gemaakt. Ik wil ze nu toch eindelijk afmaken maar ik had het erg druk de afgelopen maanden, met van alles en nog wat. Ik verheug me erop je in juni weer te zien en ik hoop dat ik je dan een finished quilt kan tonen. Hoe is het met je, sorry, dat had ik eerst moeten vragen, En met je afstudeerwerk. Ik hoop dat het allemaal lukt.
Veel liefs, Ina Klugt

I have seen your work in Waalre last year and i liked it very much. Sorry, ik ga nu even door in het Nederlands, ik vind het geweldig om mee te kunnen doen aan je workshop Tifaifai.

Lyn Smolenska: Over in Frodsham, England we have had a most inspiring time with you, Dijanne.Your workshop gave me opportunities to break down mental barriers and be more creative, learn better ways to embroider and applique than I've ever managed before. Being able to touch and explore your work was fascinating too.Many, many thanks.
March 15, 2004 5:23AM
judy wilson: I think Val Shields must have given details of this site. I thought it would be nice to see your work before seeing it in the flesh as it were. I have enjoyed seeing the 2 quilts that have been exhibited at Llangollen. Looking forward to your visit to Chester/Frodsham.

I remember reading that the Hospice, the one run by the nuns, at St Vincents Private Hospital in Darlinghurst has dedicated space for quilt art and that this artform is their focus for collection. They may be a potential source of sponsorship/funding.
best wishes, jayne

I talked to Heidi just a few minutes ago, and she told me to ask you this question.
You plan to give a workshop at the logcabin in Hilleberg in Germany, and my question is, when do you give this workshop?
And do you have a place left so I could come to see how you work.
Hope to hear from you.

Barb Hollenback: Hello, I very much enjoy your work, especially Forest, and Red Turtles. I admire too, your work ethic. My sister and her husband are self-employed and I see what a long day they put in.
I am an art quilter, retired from my former job. I finally got a few pieces in a local gallery and it was a big thrill for me. But because I am a beginner as far as exposure is concerned, I cannot demand high prices for my work. In fact, I am glad to get 50.00/sq ft. For me though, it is not my chief source of income and therein lies the difference. Thankyou for sharing your experience and your work with the quilt digest group.
March 26, 2003 5:03PM
mary stevens: i just looked at your photos of your quiltworks on line.
yoiur fire series is beautiful and

Wat een verrassing dat ik een email van je kreeg.
Heel erg leuk! Het gaat erg goed met mij. Ik heb
een lieve vriend, Cor, waarmee ik de camping doe in Renesse. Zijn dochter, Milene, is ook vaak
bij ons. Met mijn ouders en broer John gaat het
ook prima. John en zijn vrouw Monique hebben 2
kinderen, Thijs en Lisa. Ik hoop dat het met jou
en je gezin, Tante Hennie en je broer ook goed
gaat. Wat leuk dat je aan mijn emailadres bent
gekomen via de ezelsite. Houd jij ook van ezels?
Wij hebben er 3. Fantastische dieren.
Ik zou het erg leuk vinden als je me nog eens mailt.
Heel veel groetjes aan iedereen. Ik zal morgen
mijn ouders van jou vertellen.
Liefs Sandra

Judith Malmgren: What great quilts! I liked finding out about the various techniques that you used and seeing your use of colour. I was rather intrigued by the Quarter Moon quilt.Could you explain how you came to give it that title? It was wonderful to be able to see the stitching detail in the last quilt. I always appreciate seeing that part of the creative process. Many thanks for sharing your work in this way.
