| I am a story teller. I use fabric and thread to tell my stories, the stories about my family, travel, my thoughts, and sometimes stories that live on the bookshelves of my library or the whispers of the wind. Some stories are told through photographs and some in song but many of them are told in fabric and thread and stitches. Like a good story, each of them can mean something different to each person every time it is read. Because I come to my work of story-telling from a traditional quilting and sewing background, some pieces are constructed in that manner. But I also love adventure and trying new products and methods and a variety of media. Wondering 'what if' I combined this tool or media with another always with the underlying goal of telling the best story I possibly can is part of who I am. I hope you enjoy my stories. |
