I am a textile artist. I love working in bright colors, and re-purposed objects.

My work has covered virtually the entire spectrum of quilting. I started playing with textiles many years ago making utilitarian quilts from scraps left over from clothing construction. Fifteen years ago, I began creating quilts simply for the joy of working with color and fabric. and over the years, my quilts have become more complex in design and now some have crossed the line from on the bed to on the wall. A class with Jane Burch Cochran opened a new world of contemporary art study for me, and I began to explore intuitively pieced quilting and its use in creating line and shape. These explorations have provided a means for me to take thought and emotion and put them into a physical form.

My work has been exhibited in galleries and quilt shows throughout the country.
