"High Society" in Sacred Threads Main Exhibition

 

High Society

This is my homage to vintage linens that I call "High Society". It is made of linens or fabric that I got from my Mother, Grandmother, or in an antique store. This quilt is on display at the Sacred Threads Exhibition in Indianapolis, IN, until November 9, 2025. This exhibition is described as focusing on "expressing life's journeys, joy, spirituality, healing, grief, inspiration, and peace". The exhibition is at the Zion Evangelical UCC. 

BEST OF SHOW! All Is Wright With The World!

 I'm so honored to have been awarded BEST OF SHOW in the Flying Geese Quilters Guild 2025 Quilt Show for my "All is Wright With the World" art quilt, shown below. I never in a million years expected to receive a best of show award. I am overwhelmed and gratified to have received this award. Woo Hoo!

All Is Wright With The World

I created this fiber art piece based on a photo of my husband sitting with a friend on a fishing trip. The place they are sitting is called "Wright Creek", hence the use of this word in the title. 

Sanderling Safari

I love these wave running shore birds!

I call it Sanderling Safari. Details are shown below:

Dove Tea Party

One of my recent bird themed pieces. I call it Dove Tea Party. 

High Society - A Tribute to Vintage Linens

I took a class about incorporating vintage linens in quilts from Cindy Needham years ago. She inspired me to do something creative with the linens I have from my Mom and Grandmother. Here is the result:

Here is a detail:

On The Hunt!

I was birding one morning and saw two barn owls flying over a field, looking for breakfast. It was 8 am, a very unusual time to see owls flying. What a fabulous treat for me! Those birds inspired me to make this piece that I call, "On the Hunt!". I show the owl at night because that is when you would normally expect them to be out.
