I have an affinity for fabrics. I love to look at them, touch them, and collect them. Once I've lived with a fabric for a while, I begin to understand it and how it will work as part of my palette.

As a quilter, I strive for perfection in my piecing and hand quilting. As a fiber artist, I strive to select the perfect fabrics that will work together and enable me to create a unique and harmonious composition. It is my ultimate hope that this attention to fine craftsmanship, coupled with my compositional skills, will result in a creation that transcends my craft into fine art.

Quilts are framed using museum-quality archival materials. Quilts are hand sewn to acid-free museum board, protected by low UV glass, and finished with a custom-made frame.

My work ranges from the simple pleasure of needle-punch embroidery, to meticulously hand-quilted miniatures.

See us at these Art & Craft shows!

I will not be participating in any shows this season. However, I will continue to sell miniature quilts by appointment. Please call or e-mail me for information.
