Quilting this queen-sized beauty on a home sewing machine was a huge undertaking. The groups of lines stitched horizontally and vertically emphasize the beautiful piecing. Kay used a thin piecing thread, stitching a few lines every day until it was completed.
We have power! WOO HOO! No power around here means no heat and no water! Snow then an ice storm and we were cold! No getting out of the drive way, fallen trees frozen to the ground. More than 1 million electric customers and 750,000 natural gas customers in 11 counties were with out power.
My quilts are colorful, graphic, vibrant and joyful!! I use color and texture to explore the glories of nature. Realism or abstraction, are used as best fits a theme or concept. I enjoy the challenge and excitement of translating my vision into quilts through a rich variety of fabrics, gilding and embellishment.
I find such joy in being able to express myself through quilting, that I'm not comfortable without a needle in my hand. Quilting is my life's work and a wonderful one at that.
The best quilt is always the next one.
