Healing Quilts. This one hour lecture is a slide show of some amazing projects where quilts have been used to better the lives of patients and their families. It will give your guild or organization some ideas on how to start your own healing quilt project. This lecture is pro bono. I will provide you with suggested donations to my favorite charities.

Journey of Faith. I will share my personal testimony of how faith has brought me out of a corporate career to making art quilts for my place of worship. I have many inspirational stories to share about how this path has deepened my faith and brought me incredible joy. I will bring some of my worship quilts to share. The length of this talk can be tailored to suit the needs of your group. This lecture is pro bono.

 

 

Praise Him. Made for my pastor at church. It now hangs in the sanctuary. It is based on one of the panels in Selah and is done in colors that complement our church building. This quilt came about in an unusual way. Read The Story About This Quilt.

Personal Journey as an Art Quilter. This lecture and trunk show tracks the path of my development as a quilt artist beginning with my few traditional pieces, examples of my studio experiments in design, to the quilts I am making today. I hope to inspire fellow quilters to experiment and find their own calling.

 

 

Global Balance. Made for the Hoffman Challenge 2008. It is currently traveling in the trunk QC-A. For quilters in the MD, VA, NC area, it will be shown at Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival in February 2009.
