The art quilts I create have no limits on the materials I use.

I will often use fabric dyes, pigments, watercolors, acrylic paint, digital prints and paper in my original art.

This work was created with a deconstucted quilt block with added indigo dyed fabric. Machine and hand stitching completed the piece. It’s only 6”x 6” and will be mounted on a wrapped art canvas for hanging. It could probably use some bird legs.

Another preposition panel from my Dangling Preposition scroll.

This is just one section of my 8 panels included in a hanging scroll exhibit for the SAQA IN Challenge titled Dangling Prepositions. The exhibit will be premiering at the I-Fell gallery in Bloomington IN during the Indiana Heritage Quilt Show March 5-7. The exhibit will include approximately 25 hanging scrolls all created with hand stitching. The creativity of the SAQA IN members is amazing with each scroll presenting a different take on 8 different prepositions. It was definitely a challenge.

6” by 6”, that is the size for the Small Business Friday art exhibit happening next fall at the Martinsville Art Sanctuary. Working small presents some challenges but I enjoy creating in smaller sizes and have already started planning for the exhibit. This one is mounted on a wrapped canvas. Machine and hand stitching adds variety and texture.

Yesterday, I saw something that I’ve not seen in a long time, sunshine. That bright and shiny stuff that brings joy. It was a great opportunity to create some cyanotype papers for cards. The green one was an experiment. I used a paper I had previously painted green then added the cyanotype mixture.

Creating greeting cards is another passion of mine. I’m teaching a workshop on Monday for a local art club and I’ve had a ball making samples. I prefer using my own art papers I create using a Gelli plate and/or cyanotype prints.

No such thing as too many chickadees. Chickadees help brighten a dreary winter day.

It's that time of year for me to donate to the Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA) Spotlight Auction. This year I am donating Foxy Lady. She was created with a few digital images from the Graphics Fairy website in accordance with their policies and enhanced with raw edge applique, hand embroidery and machine quilting.

6 months without a post. That's unacceptable. I've got to do better. Here is Magpie Cutie a 12"x12" art quilt with lots of free motion stitching and hand embroidery.

Tea Time is a 12” X 12” collage piece with lots of hand embroidery. A variety of materials were used including tissue paper, cheesecloth, synthetic and natural fabrics.

I was very surprised to see my art quilt featured. Tonight is the reception and I’m excited to get to view more art created by the very talented SAQA IN members.

My sister painted this sweet little snail on a greeting card and gifted it to me. With her permission I digitally printed the snail on to fabric to make this quilted postcard.
