I've reduced the prices on my five available quilts and am donating 30% of the sale price of each purchased quilt for Hurricane Harvey and/or Hurricane Irma victims through Samaritan's Purse. See the "Art for Sale" page for more information.

I became a quilter in the year 2000 after seeing an episode of the Quilt-In-A-Day program on T.V. for the first time. It was the beginning of a love-affair with quilt making. Initially, I used patterns and made functional quilts only. A couple years later I got out pencil and paper and began sketching and drafting designs for pictorial and landscape quilts to hang on the wall. In late 2004, I entered my first show. With that delightful experience my quilting passion took a detour to wall quilt-art almost exclusively. I like to work with bold, saturated colors and I use high-quality cotton fabrics. Occasionally I will in-corporate synthetic fabrics to create specific design elements. |

There is considerable diversity in the appearance and style of my quilts. I work according to inspiration and what interests me at the time; and will use whatever construction method needed to create a piece. The commonality in nearly all my work is the use of embellishment and/or dimension.
Since retiring from lecturing, trunk shows, and teaching I have offered many of my award-winning quilts and non-competition pieces for sale.

Really 'Wild' Flowers! Second Season - 62" x 65" went missing in November 2011, in Houston, Texas. There is a reward for its safe return - no questions asked. |
I enjoy receiving comments or questions about my work and website via the Contact page. I'll reply to questions as soon as possible. Thanks for visiting! I've received no word about my missing quilt, "Really 'Wild' Flowers! Second Season." I am still praying it will show up on my doorstep one day. If you happen to see this quilt anywhere - please contact me. I would love to have it come home. |
