Art quilting makes my heart sing and gives me the chance to make small pieces with lots of embellishments, colors and meaning. I have taught hand piecing for many years and confess that I pack my hand work before my clothes when I travel!!

Becoming a member of the Potomac Fiber Arts Gallery has given me a chance to exhibit my work and to join a very talented group of artists and feel the creative juices flowing at the Torpedo Factory.

As an art quilter I care deeply about making art available in health care settings to uplift the spirits of those waiting for care. You can see my work on the web site of Fiberartists@looseends to which I belong. I am also a member of the Alliance for the American Quilt, which is an advocate for quilters through documenting our oral history. They also sponsor lectures and charity events. I belong to AQN and SAQA and am an acitve member of my Reston Quilters Unlimited chapter.

I enjoy making quilts that are fun, such as my fish series- one of which was highlighted in the Oct. show at the Potomac Fiber Arts Gallery. Additionally, I make quilts with written messages on them and am working on several series quilts on spring and on an old family cookbook reprinted onto fabric. I also teach at the Artful Quilter in Burke, VA.
