I love fabric and sewing. The creative process feels as natural as breathing – the thinking, the figuring, solving the problem of manifesting the translucent picture in my head. Sometimes the vision materializes, but more often the mental process is enough. And there is just not enough time to do it all?

This photo was taken several years ago when I had the opportunity to help install a wearable art exhibit at Los Angeles International Airport. Sergio and I are dressing a mannequin. We were tired and it just all became too funny. I like this photo.



Life happens in the space between

36" x 48"

This is a quilt that just evolved. Originally inspired by life: my intentions and someone else’s perceptions. The blue / male fabrics were purchased at the Goodwill Store near my home. The pink / female / mom fabrics were found at the Goodwill Marketplace in Santa Ana. I wanted the quilt to evoke people, relationships, home and hearth. On the quilt is an original poem, written years ago.
