It is with great joy that at this point in my life I can indulge myself with the exploration of fiber, fabric and thread. Much to my dismay at an early age, I realized that I did not have enough time to do everything, so I narrowed my focus.
I can trace my interest to grade school days with a hand embroidered potholder. Now I am in retirement after a career in the corporate world and raising a family. I am therefore free to pursue the various avenues of fiber art. My first efforts were in all forms of embroidery; then knitting; and currently my work centers in art quilting. And let us throw beading and collage work into the mix. I love color, texture and a bit of bling. The beauty of this passion is that there is no end!
