I love to travel all over the globe shopping for textiles to add to my wearable art. I have taught quilting to school children in Nepal, seminole patchwork to seamstresses in Thailand, and jackets and embellishment to quilters in Turkey where I also served as a judge at 2 of their International Quilt Shows. I have created garments for 5 Fairfield and Bernina Fashion Shows and teach classes on embellishment and wearable art. Lately I have been leaning more toward making art quilts.

Binghamton, N.Y. Quilt Show

The University of Binghamton is currently home to three exhibits until December 5th. I had the pleasure to view it a few weeks ago with Beth Brandkamp.

The Evolution of Natural Fibers

Explore the wonders of cotton, linen, silk, and wool, tracing their development from seed and fur to colorful dyed fabrics and the rugs, tapestries, garments andother textile arts they are made into. Attend free movies, classes, and ongoing demonstrations on fabric, sheering, dyeing, weaving, spinning, and quilting.
