Cinnamon sticks and pink sunflowers

Here I am with my piece "A walk in the woods" at the Works Gallery in Ohio. I was thrilled to have my quilt hang with so many beautiful pieces.
I had an incredible trip to Ohio where I took a Shibori class at QSDS and saw Quilt National up close and personal. What an experience to see those amazing art quilts. I had quilts in two other shows and had a wonderful time visiting them.

The cinnamon stick piece was inspired by one of the quilts that I saw in my travels. I love the textures and colors that I put together.

Pink Sunflowers is a store sample. I began with a batik and used a Tsukineko fabric marker to highlight some of the sunflowers. Then I beaded the centers. I sure love embellishing with beads.
