This quilt is the second in a series using the Wyoming Valley block and is the only block used in designing the quilt. Different looks are obtained by changing the fabric placement from block to block. The block, Wyoming Valley, is from the 1930’s Chicago Tribune column, Nancy Cabot, written by Loretta Leitner Rising. The Nancy Cabot column was published from 1932-1939. This example has four commercial theme fabrics depicting four sports which include basketball, bowling, billiards, and golf. The other commercial fabrics used remain the same from block to block to give the piece continuity. All quilting is done by hand and the binding is applied by hand as well. A hanging sleeve is incorporated into the piece so that the owner can display it in his memorabilia room. Commission Budget: $20,250

I have been constructing textile artworks for over thirty years incorporating dense hand stitching which gives visual and physical texture to my work. I was born in St. Paul, Minnesota in 1963 and have had my studio in Cushing, Wisconsin since 1991. My work includes pieced work using commercial fabrics as well as rust pigmentation and non-traditional dyeing techniques. More recent work has been using whole cloth construction using my hand dyed and painted fabrics and rust pigmentation along with my signature hand stitching. Each piece is unique and starts with an idea from my subconscious and develops as I construct the artwork. Decisions are made regarding materials, technique, size, and sculptural stitching as the piece develops. Nothing is preplanned so the initial idea may not be even close to what the finished artwork reveals. My medium is thread on textiles, much like a painter's medium is "oil on canvas" or "acrylic on hard board". My work can be found in many private art collections around the world. Commission work keeps my schedule full for several years in advance. I exhibit my award winning artwork nationally in juried fine art exhibitions in galleries, museums, and art centers. I am represented by several fine art galleries across the United States. I am the author of several books available worldwide, describing my processes, artistic philosophy, and experiences with artist residencies.
