How it all began … Like my character, Kit, I too dreamed of a church several times as a child. (Although my dream didn’t end nearly as dramatically as hers did.) My family and I were driving to Milwaukee when we turned off onto a dirt road and ended up at a church. Even though on the surface, the dream itself didn’t seem very memorable, for years it haunted me. In real life when I would run into a similar church, I would immediately think back to that dream. I never knew what to do with that dream until…
I read. And quilt. A lot.
