LibertyTown first Fridays..

There is a new art show at LibertyTown, here in Fredericksburg. The theme is birds, and a piece I made got in! LibertyTown is an open studio gallery, where over 40 of us artsy-types have studios, and work. It's open to the public, so folks can come and talk and shop and see the art being made. Come out and see the new show!
This piece is again, a literary theme, based on Edgar Allan Poe's poem, "The Raven". Hand and machine quilted, pieced and embellished. I used actual book pages on it as well.

no laurel resting

Been in the studio.. for a little time with the muse, this one a literary one..


In between building an ark, for the 4 straight days of rain, I'm working on my Dec. show (all good things come in 3's right?).. a literary theme.. the show being in the atrium of the library.


This is inspired by the "Little House" books by Laura Ingalls Wilder. I'm working on 12 (eek! ) new pieces, all inspired by famous authors and their books . Paper,fabric, floss all hand and machine appliqued and quilted 24"x24"
