Flight of the Spirit Birds Quilt
My quilting has never been what you would call traditional. I recall one spring when the Art Museum in the city I live in at the time said that my work was too much like quilts while the Historical Museum rejected the same work as far too non-traditional and controversial for their show. I guess I like the medium but I have never liked making traditional quilts that people would put on beds. I don’t have one quilt on a bed in my home, yet quilts such as the one you see here adorn my walls.
Ryoka No Seishen Tori, which measures 53″ x 78″, was made while I was doing a lot of collaborative work with companies and quilters in Japan. It seemed that at that time a lot of my work was being shown internationally, and while it traveled the world I traveled the United States teaching quilting, or in my studio producing commission work.
