Be sure to check out Fiberart For A Cause!! Welcome to my Web site! Looking at my quilts one can sense the deep attachment that has rooted me to the land. After years of living in Alaska, I am inspired by the beautiful scenery that surrounds me. I also spend time in Colorado, where the serenity of the red rock canyons warms and calms my inner spirit. The shapes, colors, lighting and so many other elements that I observe in nature motivate me to create. I take photographs on my many adventures and translate what I see into sketches, which are then worked into my quilt designs. Dyeing and painting my own fabric enables me to find a way to describe my visions. I am only satisfied with a piece after I have added the proper stitches and embellishing. Those beads, buttons, yarn, threads and meaningful symbols are collected along the way of my life's journey. As a member of Surface Design Association (SDA), NoNaMee Fiber Artists (NFA), Association of Pacific Northwest Quilters (APNQ) and The Art Quilt Association (AQUA) I enjoy working with other artists, whether it is to collaborate on a project or explore new techniques. I have found many ways to nurture my creativity through quilting, painting, metal working and interior design. I only aspire that my art will bring a sense of joy and peace to those who view it.
