● Art Quilting from Vacation Photos

To start God gave me the gift to see color in all its many nuances and as a child my favorite “toy” was my box of 64 crayons and a pair of scissors. 

I asked for an electric sewing machine for Christmas at age 12 as we only had a Singer treadle. In those years I was making clothes and went off to college in 1971 for fashion design at Drexel University in Philadelphia, took lots of drawing and painting classes and art history, too. Switched my major to interior design, got married, started my own business, had 3 children, husband’s career moved us a couple times and I really found quilting when we moved to Wisconsin in 1995 for his engineering job at Harley. I quickly went from taking classes to giving classes at my local quilt shop in Slinger. It took awhile for me to get over the finished seams thing and start art quilting about 2007. 

I won Viewer’s Choice at Madison that year and also bought a Gammill Longarm which I don’t recommend if you really want to do Art Quilts. I sold my Longarm in 2018 and now I’m back to doing Art Quilts. I really love to turn my travel photos into Art Quilts. I will show you my process using photos of the progression of two of my award winning Art Quilts “Reflections of Honfleur” and “The Gardener’s Cottage” which will be on display along with a few other pieces.
