| Valentine I made and sent to my quilting friends a few years ago when the chatter on QuiltArt.com was about all the crazy things you can send in the mail. |
A nametag I keep forgetting to wear.

| What to do with at hankie? A group of us made quilts out of hankies, that we could not cut, and displayed them in an exhibit. "Strut" is the title. |
My first year going to IQA Houston this is the tiara I wore. Since I didn't make it myself, I didn't win a tiara pin, but I had fun practicing my princess wave.
"Latte Da" is currently on disply in my daughter's off campus apartment.
I made this necklace for the second annual "Ugly Necklace Contest" from Land of Odds. I was one of the top 10 finalists. I guess they record this contest in the Smithsonian, so there I am. We were supposed to make an ugly necklace and write a poem. I put the necklace on my daughter and photographed it for the entry. Being true to my fiber background, I made fabric beads and added Sculpy beads and various embellishments and feathers. Since my necklace looked like a bunch of fishing lures I wrote:
Beautiful woman
so exquisitely adorned,
at sunrise we fish.
Terry Waldron taught us a class a few years back on landscape quilts. I enjoy her laid back teaching style -- more room for creativity to flow.

| "I Did my Breast" was for the QuiltArt Bra Breast Challenge. I photocopied my breast at home then printed it on fabric. It's my only self-portrait. I heard every artist should do a self-portrait, usually nude. This is as wild as I got. |
