I came into this quilting world with no previous sewing experience or restricting rules and that seems to have been to my advantage. I am very excited where my art quilting has already taken me in such a short amount of time. I have received awards both nationally and internationally and am enjoying teaching and sharing my ideas with others. Doing my own thing and taking my own path works for me. I like to leap outside the square and love inspiring others to step into new territory.

I received my artistic training from Northern Illinois University in 1986, where I received a bachelor degree in Art Education and a minor in Art History.
Mixing that formal training art media training with my own understanding of color, fabric, and design along with the the benefits of collaboration with other quilt artists has been a powerful combination for creativity. www.quiltinglife.com

Who are
The Three Sisters?
They are three talented award winning art quilters from 3 different countries;
virtual sisters connected not by birth but by artistic creativity.
They combine design, painting, fabric, education, and
tri-nation creativity into inspirations of mythic proportions.
Across the borders and each working in their own countries, they completed their quilt "The Three SIsters" winning a 1st place-Group Category in Houston's International Quilt Festival 2007.
Coming together at RIcky Tims in La Veta Colorado in 2008, they have begun a second international collaborative quilt tentatively called "Seasonal Sisters". This quilt is COMPLETE and will be in the Houston show Quilts:World of Beauty 2008! Wish us luck!
