Getting Out and Getting Inspired
No matter where I travel, I find inspiration for my work. Whether it’s at a quilt show, an art exhibit, a museum or out in nature.
Collecting Art
Although I’m a prolific artist and have way more of my own art than I have wall space to display it, I can’t seem to resist collecting small works of art from other artists.

How do we make our compositions harmonious? In artwork, the main player is usually contrast. But it is color that grabs most people’s attention.

IMAGINE MUSEUM – Inspiration at its finest!
This article is a glimpse of how I am inspired to make textile art from museum visits. I want to share this particular museum and exhibits because the memory has stayed with me over the years and the art continues to inspire me. I hope they inspire you too.
Transitioning from traditional patchwork to fiberart
I have been quilting for more than 45 years. I started this journey with library books, thrift store clothing, fabric scraps and hand quilting.
What is SAQA
Studio Art Quilt Associates, Inc. (SAQA) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to promote the art quilt.
Is it Worthy?
It took me a lifetime to allow myself the “luxury” of making art purely for pleasure, rather than feeling like everything I do has to have “worth.” What is “worth” anyway? As defined by The American Heritage Dictionary, it is “the quality that renders something desirable, useful or valuable” and “material or market value.”
