“I make quilts because they speak to me. They speak of generations of textile workers, the importance of women working together, and the beauty that putting those little pieces of fabric together can make. The medium is constantly changing and challenging. Quilts make my assumptions of how something is to work dissolve. I cannot go a week without playing with texture, discovering composition, or touching fiber. Quilts become a metaphor for my life.”
