I love color. 

I have loved playing with color since those early exciting boxes of crayons. 

What a treat a new box of 12 fresh clean crayons was!  And, to learn there were more options- oooh!!.

My Mother taught me to sew as a pre-teen.  I enjoyed sewing clothing, stuffed animals, home deco items +  for many years.  In 1996, I started ‘quilting’ and found a true passion.  These past 6 years have been delightful, exploring many ways of putting fabrics together, I’ve made some 270 pieces – large and small.

Think ‘visual music’ when you see my work.  It’s all about color, surface texture & design.  Something that thrills the eye is my aim.

I feel extremely fortunate to have something I enjoy this much.  Being able to express myself in this art form is a joy.  It’s a real thrill for me, when others enjoy it as well.   In a critique, Wendy Huhn made this wonderful comment:

“Her work is eye candy and food for the spirit.”
