"I can’t remember when I wasn’t creating something with my hands. I am constantly reinventing my processes of working with fabric. I love texture and stitching and dyeing my own fabric for my quilts." |

She began quilting in 1983 in a traditional format, transitioned to art quilts in 2007, and has never looked back. Her work has moved from a flat art quilt into the sculptural realm, removing negative space and engaging the area in and around each piece.
