Nathasha Brooks-Harris is the author of Panache, Can I Get an Amen, Can I Get an Amen Again, etc. I first met her back in 2003 during a writing workshop she hosted. I still utilize the things I learned from her workshop today.
What’s one thing (besides writing) that you enjoy doing?
Actually, there are two things besides writing that I enjoy doing: making cloth dolls and quilting. I took a dollmaking class in 1993 because I was bored and wanted something to do, and I’ve been making them ever since. My grandmother quilted and I’d been fascinated by them since I was a child. When I found out there was a local quilting guild, I joined and started making quilts. So far, several of my dolls have been exhibited in museums, art shows, galleries, and in Mount Vernon City Hall. A couple of my quilts have been in quilting magazines. Those t hings made very happy because they began as hobbies and became something else.
