This was one of my earlier works (2008), a collage, not an art quilt, that I did for a class I took. It's called "Colorado"
This was a piece I did for my daughter, probably in 2007 or 2008. It was a lot of fun! (My daughter is now 33, by the way!). It's called, "Red Fish, Blue Fish" in honor or Dr. Seuss:
Another art quilt I made in a class with Ellen Lindner, called "Sunflower Serenade:"
I seem to finding pics of only the early quilts right now, so I'll keep going. This one was another from a class I took (I must have taken 2 dozen online classes the year after I discovered art quilting!). Sorry I can't remember the name.
This piece, called "Memories" was done earlier this year, or late last year, after my first attempt at deconstructed screen printing:
And just to finish this post off with another beginner quilt, I did a "Halloweenish" piece while exploring where my wings might take me:
Keep checking back--I'll add more (and better I hope) pieces along the way. I may even get them organized some day!
