Biography


As a lifelong sewing enthusiast & fiber art fanatic, I love all things sewn, stuffed, embroidered & embellished!  I have designed & manufactured clothing, fabric, infant bedding & pillows under my own label & private store labels since my early twenties.  My dresses were carried in Neiman-Marcus, Abercrombie & Fitch, Talbot’s & Harold’s.  My true passion, making three dimensional soft art, was realized while exhibiting at a wholesale fine craft show in Philadelphia where a museum store first bought my work.  I am an American Craft Council Artist and have been represented in over 100 museum stores and fine craft galleries.  I have made 3-dimensional art quilts, including a Robert Kaufman Quilt Quest Miniature Winner: “cupcakes & cherries”, which traveled with the exhibit for a year www.robertkaufman.com/quiltquest/2008/.  I have done commission work for and sold pieces to a few local and national celebs and have exhibited fiber art on Canyon Road in Santa Fe, NM. and at International Quilt Festival in Houston.  My first design CD has been featured in Quilting and Embroidery Magazine. My website is: www.ilovefiberart.com/.  My Blog can be found at: http://ilovefiberart.blogspot.com/

 

I now make and sell embroidery designs and kits, sew pillows and soft sculpture, do occasional shows, teach, travel & play with my terrific husband & amazing teenage daughter & enjoy our black lab and Morgan horse!
