Creating fiber art through quilting allows me to stretch my artistic talents with all the possibilities of fabric while also enjoying the calming, meditative effects of stitching. I capture moments in time—a flower at the height of its bloom or the split second when an animal is still.

Lily is almost done……

I now have to hand stitch the facing down on the back and it will be done.
I had a lot of fun with this piece. I did a minimal paint job on the lily and did a lot of work filling in with stitching. I also really enjoyed doing all the background quilting.

Here is a detail of my favorite background quilting stitches.
