A couple of years later, the improvisational technique was taught to a group of quilters who wanted to make more contemporary quilts. A limited color palette was successful in winning first place in a Minnesota show.

Making this quilt involved a new experience: using a rotary cutter without use of a ruler. What fun to put vivid colors together and make something perky.

Influenced by the works of Kaye England, this quilt was a playful venture into using an interesting mix of color and fabrics. This was a compelling work that was finished in nearly record time.

The dancer was given to me by a great neighbor whose husband went diving near Roatan. The white pillow top was tea stained before joining scrap fabrics, beads, and hand dyed silk and velvet from England. The quilt was on display at the Wisconsin Arts Board in Madison.

A portrait of the artist as an animal. It would be wonderful to have the freedom to fly, to look at the world from all levels, and to enjoy color.

This piece started with a leftover star. Angelina and batik orbs drift along with smaller stellar objects.
