More artwork to share

It's been a while since I wrote in this blog. I'm still learning how to design the layout. Also, I'm realizing that a good camera makes all the difference when taking pictures of my artwork.


Below are 2 pieces that are currently traveling.


The piece below is called "River". It was juried into Quilts on the Wall: Fiber Artists exhibition called "Detours". I'm so honored and excited that my quilt was accepted. The exhibit was shown for the first time at the International Quilt Festival in Long Beach from July 24 - 26, 2009. Detours has been juried into the International Quilt Festival in Houston, Texas, where the quilts will be on display from October 10-19, 2009. Having a quilt in the Houston show is similar to playing football in the Super Bowl!

Here is another one of my pieces called Journal Entry I. It's part of the Quilts on the Wall: Fiber Artists 2008 challenge exhibit called "Unfettered Letters". Each member was asked to interpreted the theme of letters. The exhibit is currently being shown at the following venues:

Hello and welcome to my blog!
I figured the best way to get started is to show some of my work.

This piece is called "Lopsided". It was juried into "Artistic Designs in Fiber" exhibit coordinated by Quilts on the Wall: Fiber Artists group at the Alex Haleigh Gallery in Gardena, CA.


This one is called "Color Study : Squares". It was exhibited at Road to California in Ontario, CA this year. I wasn't thinking of entering this quilt. I made it so I could practice using my walking foot. It goes to show that you don't have anything to lose by entering.
