I am a self-taught quilt artist living and working in New York’s Hudson Valley. My quilt designs and color choices are influenced by traditional American folk art and craft. Believing that simple handmade items create an atmosphere of beauty and warmth in a home, my pieces are made with the intention of being used, displayed and enjoyed as part of daily life. For me, the craft of quilt making is an art form that enhances domestic spaces with the spirit of the hands of the quilter. Quilts will naturally grow more beautiful with use: a bit of fading, signs of wear are all a part of the living memory acquired by the piece as it settles into a space as functional art.

In addition to stitching quilts for friends, family and retail, I often have the opportunity to share my knowledge in hand work and kitchen skills through workshops.
