I was born in a log cabin quilt and spent my
early years gazing up at attic windows. Since
then I have been quilting for over 30 years,
partly inspired by my grandmother and aunts
who were lifetime quilters.
P.S. My husband wrote that. Real
information--Yes, I have been quilting since
forever. I make both traditional and
contemporary quilts, and everything in
between, as the fancy takes me. I have
exhibited at Visions in San Diego and have
won ribbons at the IQA show in Houston. I
hand and machine quilt. I do painstaking
exact piecing and quick curvy fusing. I
embellish old clothes. I bead. I have a
passion for color and texture. I teach classes
and give lectures to guilds. My education
was in science and I am utterly surprised by
the undeniable fact that I am an artist.
