I was the only artist with fabric and fiber art so I felt somewhat intimidated by the challenge but it was a fun experience in creativity and I would do it again.I started day one with the ideas for four different pieces and was able to finish them in 3 days.

Stay Tuned. AND think Spring!... » Read More
Art Quilts

Art Fire has just launched a new format for our studios. I hope you find it easier to navigate thru and like the new fresh look.
My art quilts were in a show at Valley Art Center for the month of July so they were not available for viewing during that time. I now have them relisted here and have been adding new ones as time allows.
