This design came out of my fascination with the colors of Fall in the North-east. I love the cabin in the woods and the ocean bay. Most of my wall hangings include ocean or river motifs, signifying my joy at returning to the state of my birth. All my wall hangings include a hanging sleeve attached to the back for hanging easily on a rod. My applique work is called raw edge applique and all appliques are all attached with fusible material and then stitched. This piece measures 20" x 27". It is bright and attractive, giving the observer the warmth and serenity of Autumn colors. I often do custom work, creating views from peoples' homes or cottages. Please know that my work results in impressions of a view and is not to be compared with photographic images of a scene. My excuse for this is that "artists play!"

I have worked with fabric since I was 15 years old. I began as a dressmaker and have created many gowns and wedding gowns for myself, my daughters and other family members. For a time, I created teddy bears, Priest and Deacon stoles, and sewed neckties for a shop in Rochester NY.
About a year ago I took a leap into an altogether different kind of sewing and now I design and create quilted Landscape Wall Hangings. This has become a passion for me.

I have given several talks around the Maine area about the connection between art and spirituality and have begun teaching others the art of landscape quilting.
