Quilting is my legacy. I have played with fabric for more than 40 years, and I still find it interesting. Texture, color and pattern all come together as an art form. Quilts give you a “hug.” They comfort you. They tell stories and share history. I try to impart a sense of play and fun when working with students of any age. The patterns in quilting patchworks are puzzles that you can personalize and make your own legacy.
