My Newest Style: Collage Quilting

I've started expanding my style of quilting and have become addicted to creating what I like to call "collage quilts".












You can find these quilts in Eula boutique right now for purchase.

Narrative Arts, The Supreme Orator Exhibition



Last Saturday, my "Unparalleled Journey" quilt that I made in honor of the 44th Presidential Inauguration of Barack Obama was included in the "Narrative Arts, The Supreme Orator" exhibition opening at the Kennedy Heights Arts Center. This was their 2nd invitational exhibit of this year.




Other artists included, but were not limited to, Cynthia Lockhart; Joyce Young, and Kyle & Kellie Phelps. The exhibit included quilts, photography, paintings, jewelry, and mixed medium and media pieces.
