Older work
I am so reluctant to take pics off my site!  When I put this work up, I could see that I have actually made progress since I started in 2001. Kind of like a retrospective only I'm not dead yet!
GETTING MY DUCKS IN A ROW, 2005, 33x46,  Shown Road to California, Convergence, Fiber Renaissance,. I had been feeling glum after a string of sad events, when my little grandson gave me a picture of a duck he had drawn.  Seemed like a signal to me to get on with life so I enlarged his drawing and this quilt was born.

HEN PARTY, 2006, 22"x25".   A fellow art quilter had sent me a big box of fabric,no doubt taking pity or my pathetic stash!  Many of them were cut into small squares and in beautiful colours I would never choose myself.  So I decided to make a quilt out of only these . In the process I discovered I really LIKE the autumn colours and have used them a lot since.  Shown at Ricky Tims Gallery 2007     $670.00 USD

Since achieving the status of " a woman of a certain age" I have settled into the newfound confidence, wisdom and ripeness that goes along with it. If ONLY those annoying power surges weren't part of the package.  Thank heavens for fans!
