Liberty Lost - 2004
17 x 18 inches

This is my statement about 9/11.  We have become
a nation of people that are more concerned with
security than freedom.  We will miss those who were lost.

The Eternal Goddess - 2009

28 " x 38"



She walks in the sun and dances in the moonlight.

She is wife, mother, lover, protector and friend.

She laughs, cries, loves, and rages against injustice.

She was, is, and forever shall be the Eternal Goddess.

Poem by me

The goddess figures are sculpted dolls and attached 
to the quilt.  
This is traveling during 2009 and 2010 as
part of the 
Archeology Challenge from Quilts on the Wall.

Gravity Discovers Apples
(and gives Newton a headache) - 2010

This quilt is based on the discoveries of Sir Issac Newton (1673-1727).
The apple has been attributed to his discovery of the principle of gravity.
 The prism border represents his theories of light.  The mountain illustrates a
principle of Calculus. which he shares the discovery of with Gottfried Liebniz.
Detour at 110 mph - 2009
38" x 42"

The 110 mph sign is real, although altered.
This quilt is very yellow and represents chaos.
My Favorite Thing(s) Butterfies and Flowers - 2007

This was from a challenge by the Glendale Quilt Guild.
The theme was my favorite things and required the use
of the focus fabric in the butterfly and most of the other
fabrics in the flowers.
