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.

Ithaca Quilt Show Photos
My outfit "Thanks Kaffe" from the 2006 Bernina Fashion Show. It is made from 135 Kaffe Fasset Fabrics and 5 long beaded bands from Guatemala and beaded bands from India. It won First Prize in the Viewer's Choice Wearable Art category.
This was a bog coat made by a student in one of my classes

There was a special exhibit by the Ellis Hollow Quilters with some fabulous group quilts.
Another one of the quilts from that group.
I loved the colors in these two from the regular exhibit.
