Artist Statement:
Quilts, as fiber art, are made
much the same as functional
bed quilts. There are three
layers, a designed top, a
batting and then a backing.
These are stitched together
by hand or machine.
I am an avid art quilter who
is continually experimenting
with surface materials and
design. I love color,
texture, and the tactile
quality of textiles and at
present am hand dying and
painting many of my own
fabrics, which I then combine
with commercial prints. My
work is continuously evolving.
It draws much of its
inspiration from the shapes
and colors found in nature
and travel and also from the
patterns and rhythms inherent
in the juxtaposition of color
and texture in the fabrics I
choose to complete each piece.
