Artist Statement

I have only been quilting about 10 years. Quite early on I became fascinated with art quilts. It brought my previous artistic endeavors of papier mache and photography into the fiber arts realm.

I have been “playing” with techniques and fabric manipulation for several years, but only in the past 3-4 years have I used them in practical application. What a lovely journey it has been. Each new challenge has provided me another fork in the road.

Woman’s Groundbreaking Accomplishment

Flying the skies with her famous husband, Anne received the first radio operator’s license for a woman. Together, they mapped out the air-routes we still fly to this day.

Techniques

Fabric piecing, embroidery, photo printing and fusing.

Materials

Quilting cottons, flosses and threads.
