Beginnings

It all started in 1989 when I made a 12-block sampler from a magazine quilt pattern. That was it! I knew quilting was my thing. Ten years later I began entering quilt competitions and I haven't stopped. I see no limits to the possibilities and pleasure of creating textile art.

These quilts are original compositions or adaptations of ancient ornamental designs. My work is characterized by strong visual impact, imaginative use of color, complex design and attention to detail.

So many quilt artists have contributed encouragement, information and inspiration to my adventure in quilting. In that same spirit I'm starting this blog in the hope of providing something of value to my visitors. Like me, this blog is under construction so thanks for being patient as I add information to the quilt galleries and postings.

It's just the beginning!

Welcome to my quilts.
