What I do:

Quilter

Teacher

I like to make both traditional quilts that one would nap under, and I like to make art quilts - my main process is collage.

I am a teacher - I enjoy sharing what I know, and am grateful for the women who so patiently taught me to sew, especially my mother, who did all my ripping out for me.I am a recycler - I make new things from old

Where I've Been:

Exhibits

Local Color: Connecticut Chapter of SAQA 2104. In this, my first entry into a juried show, I had two of my three pieces selected to travel the state of CT and beyond. The Shad was also selected for exhibit at Sew National in Atlanta.

Grand Central Terminal Centennial Challenge 2015. The City Quilter and All People Quilt sponsored a National challenge to create a quilt that commemorated the 100th anniversary of the terminal. Meet Me at the Clock, my second ever entry into a show, received an Honorable Mention award.
