Welcome!

Ah...fabric, thread, beautiful colors and patterns!  The art quilt is my way to express the joy I feel observing creation.  My medium is fabric and thread.  Fibers add a texture depth to my art.

Since 2005 I have been making "art" quilts that resemble paintings.  I find this to be filled with challenges and rewards.
I have sewn clothes since childhood and now spend most of my sewing time making quilted art.  Using photography as inspiration and various techniques, I make quilted fine art scenes.  My style is to quilt my art on my home sewing machine.  I have done portraits as well as many landscapes.

Morris Graves Museum of Art in Eureka, CA, exhibited works from artists of different mediums. 

The exhibit was called: "Towering" inspired by the redwoods.  Of course, that's right up my alley.  I entered "Richardson's Grove" and "Miniature Redwoods".

I'm happy to report that "Richardson's Grove" won 2nd place People's Choice award.  I always am excited when a fiber art piece stands up with paintings and other types of artwork. See more about the quilt here.
