I am an artist who is passionate about design, color, pattern, and texture. My medium is quiltmaking and I love looking at, feeling and working with fabric and other textiles. With a background in art and education, I teach classes in contemporary quiltmaking.
My inspiration comes directly from the world around me and my life. I want to help my students feel excited by what they are able to do, and to develop a belief in their own abilities.
