Blue Angel Art Quilt
$5,900.00
This is the fifth in a series of quilts featuring hand cross stitched center medallion panels. The quilt top is hand quilted by the quilt artist. The blue angel has been cross stitched by hand by an expert needleworker. The fine, hand quilting was done by the quilting artist to complement the overall design of the piece. The yellow triangles and black frame draws your attention to the blue Angel and the blue borders draw out more of the colors in her dress. A muted Oriental print is incorporated between the gold flecked blue fabric. The quilting stitches are heirloom-quality and greatly enhance the overall design of the piece. This is finely detailed hand quilting that is only achieved after years of practice. The hand quilting design in the burgundy and black swirled border gives this piece it’s finishing touch. The final border looks like piled satin. This is truly a piece of art that will grace your walls for years to come. The back of the wall hanging is covered traditionally, with unbleached muslin and is signed and dated by the quilter. Hanging sleeves and corners are already sewed on the back for ease of display. All fabrics in the wall hanging are 100% cotton. The batting used is polyester.

Butterflies in the Dark Art Quilt
$6,125.00
This piece features as it's centerpiece, a delicately hand cross stitched image of butterflies and dragonflies flirting in foliage. The center is framed with black fabric and a warm yellow fabric radiates out from the piece in a diamond pattern. The piece is then completed with repeating diagonal frames of light green and then a cream fabric with Oriental writing. The piece is heavily hand quilted and in the final black border with "ghost" butterflies densely echo quilted in varying colors to coordinate with the colors in the center. The back of the piece is unbleached muslin. The piece is hand quilted and hand bound.

Choir of Angels Tapestry
$14,000.00
This is the first in a series of quilts using this block. The entire quilt is made from one block with each block individually designed to create the overall design. The quilt is set on point with setting triangles to make the quilt square. The block used in this quilt, Wyoming Valley, is from the 1930’s Chicago Tribune column, Nancy Cabot. The block has 65 individual pieces consisting of squares and triangles. A total of 2,665 pieces are in the main body of the quilt. Placement of the 6 different colors affected the change in the design of each block. The focus fabric is the Angel Tapestry fabric used in the center of each block. The hand quilting done over the entire quilt top in a grid design. The finishing quilting was documented at over 350 hours, which comprised 1/3 of the quilt top. The backing of the quilt is traditional, unbleached muslin and is signed and dated by the artist.

Fiesta Pinwheels Art Quilt
$2,050.00
I saw pinwheels that I used to play with as a child as I was making the quilt. Others who see the quilt on display tell me they see a River Eddy that makes potholes in the bedrock of the river. This wall art has the same fabrics as Royal Pinwheel but has a much different appearance. This is more relaxed feeling like when a canoe paddle makes an eddy as you are paddling down a quiet river. The quilt is made of 100% cotton fabrics including the Bali fabric which is the purples and pinks. The hand quilting in the border is reminiscent of Art Deco design. Hand quilting has been done around each pinwheel to bring out the shape. The wallhanging was all hand quilted and the binding was sewn by hand. The backing is traditional unbleached muslin. It is signed and dated by the artist.

Hummingbirds in Flowers Art Quilt
$2,600.00
The back of the wall hanging is covered traditionally, with unbleached muslin and is signed and dated by the quilter. The quilting stitches are heirloom-quality and greatly enhance the overall design of the piece. The hand quilting of the hummingbird silhouettes in the black border gives this piece its finishing touch. The hand quilting was done to complement the hummingbirds in the cross stitched center panel. A wonderful floral patterned fabric as well as a muted Oriental print is incorporated around the hummingbirds giving the illusion that they are suspended in an Oriental flower garden. This is the second quilt in a series of quilts utilizing a hand cross stitched panel as the center medallion.

Isn't It Coffee Time?
$1,400.00
This wall art piece was designed as a challenge where one piece of fabric 18x18” (the brown marbled fabric) was selected I decided to design a piece no larger than 30”x30” using this fabric along with any others to create a unique piece that reflected the theme of “Coffee Time”. I thought about all the mornings of sitting over a cup of coffee, watching the swans and loons on the lake outside the window starting their morning routine as I prepared for another day of work. The ritual of hunching over that first cup of coffee and looking down into the cup as the coffee swirled after having stirred in the cream and sugar is represented by the swirl echo quilted inside the cup. Of course time plays a part in all of this as well – never enough time to just sit back and enjoy life, so a subdued image of a clock was quilted inside the coffee cup as well. The cup and coffee are hand appliquéd to the background. The quilting stitches are in an overall grid design and gives this piece a finished look of being set on a tablecloth.

Purple Angel Art Quilt
$3,450.00
This is the first in a series of quilts featuring hand cross stitched center medallion panels. The fine, hand quilting was designed to complement the angel in the center panel. A purple frame draws your attention to the Angel and the light purple borders draw out more of the colors in her dress. A muted Oriental print is incorporated into the background. The quilting stitches greatly enhance the overall design of the piece. The hand quilting of the 4 angels and chain design in the black border gives this piece it’s finishing touches. The back of the wall hanging is covered traditionally, with unbleached muslin and is signed and dated by the quilter.

Royal Pinwheels Art Quilt
$1,500.00
Naming pieces can be difficult. I saw pinwheels that I used to play with as a child as I was making the quilt. Others who see the quilt on display tell me they see a River Eddy that makes potholes in the bedrock of the river. Four fabrics were used to make this piece of art that has sparkle from the white background fabric as well as the black/gold fabric which adds a touch of elegance. The hand quilting stitches enhance the overall design of the piece. The hand quilting in the 2 borders gives this piece a unique, subdued finish. The quilt is also hand bound. The back of the wall hanging is covered traditionally, with unbleached muslin and is signed and dated by the quilter.

Serenity Tree Art Quilt
$1,825.00
In the center is a “Serenity” tree that is the place where we all can go for solace and peace during the troubled times of our life. The fabric in the tree top is a reproduction fabric from the William Morris Collection (1834-1896). It is heavily echo quilted. Framing the tree is a white border representing the “fence” that keeps the atmosphere around the tree peaceful. Interlocking leaves are quilted in the white border. The next 2 borders are asymmetrical and represent the influences in our lives. The red is for the anger we experience sometimes in our life. The black for the dark periods we may experience. Two opposing corners have pinwheels that represent the out of control feelings we have sometimes have, and the other 2 corners are the rigid “black and white” views that we encounter. The goal of the Serenity Tree wall hanging is to have you focus on leaving the bad influences outside of yourself and go into the peaceful, quiet, serene garden and sit under your Serenity Tree and rejuvenate your soul.
