Heat bonded fiber fragments: cottons, cotton blends, lace, satin, ribbons, trims and threads. Tulle overlays. Machine embellished with cotton and rayon, and metallic threads. This is one in a series of pieces about water – its beauty, power and inspiration.

Mixed content fiber fragments, trapped threads and yarns, multiple sheer overlays, machine stitched. Walking in the woods is a quiet place for rejuvenation and inspiration for me.

Hand-dyed, sun-printed cotton, machine pieced & quilted, heat-bonded appliqué. Fall is my favorite season, not only for its brilliant color display but for its winds of change.

Heat-bonded appliqué, found objects, computer parts, machine stitched. We are networked together by many ways: heads, hearts, hands, keyboards.

Hand-dyed and commercial cotton fabrics, found objects, food wrappers, tulle overlays, machine stitched. I’ve competed in 3 Ironman Triathlon events. Made of Iron celebrates the training and high energy commitment. Look for the words SWIM, BIKE, RUN.

Sheer layered collage, machine stitched. The new leaves of spring have a shimmer, unique color and transparency that intrigues me.

Heat-bonded fiber fragments, candy wrappers, found objects, tulle overlays, machine stitched. This piece was inspired by candy wrappers found behind the couch.

Hand-dyed and commercial fabrics, hand-cut, torn, collage. Machine stitched. Hiking on the Ice Age Trail has provided many hours of quiet, colorful inspiration.  

Hand-dyed and commercial fabrics. Improvisational composition, machine stitched. Fabric, thread, silk, plastic, spools of electrical wire and cable…it’s all fiber to me.
