My Statement
Textiles have always
fascinated me, from vintage to current, my taste
has always been ALL! Sewing in general, mending to garment making, were
never a chore. But when I pushed myself beyond traditional quilt making, I
found the road less traveled was greatly inviting.
My quilts have been described as whirlwinds of color, with oranges residing next to purples of all shades in harmony. Dots, swirls, and stripes intermingle with florals and prints in an outlandish yet exciting visual parade.
This is how I see the world and how I want the world to see me.
My work mixes traditional quilting techniques with bold, innovative machine appliqué and threadwork. Fabric choices include my own hand dyed cotton with commercial cottons for a special spark of color and depth. Pieces are heavily machine quilted.
The images are meant to spark thought and a smile, as humor is a great gift to share.
Enjoy!
