Writing and quilting from Petaluma (in Northern California) to Paris, France.

I evolved from sewing crotches in a ladies underwear factory  to becoming a family doctor and sewing up lacerations and incisions. Today I stitch narrative threads into a patchwork of stories, articles and books in addition to creating quilts. My motto (courtesy of Molly Ivins) is: “Do good. Have fun. Learn“.

I live in Paris part of each year.  Wondering how to use the Paris city bus system?  Can you identify a chasse-roue? What’s the coolest quartier in Paris? This is your source for insider tips, secrets and the quirky parts of Paris.
