'OBAMA IN BLUE' 43" x 40"


NEWS FLASH! I was interviewed by CNN about my work "OBAMA IN BLUE"! WOW! Nice people and they were nice enough to let me tell my story about the work.
I am one of the "Obama Quilters". Our work will be exhibited at The Morris & Gwendolyn Cafritz Foundation Arts Center at Montgomery College Takoma Park/Silver Spring Campus, MD, February 9 - March 5, 2009. The title of the exhibit is "President Obama: a Celebration in Art Quilts". A book will be published about the exhibit and looks as if a traveling exhibit might just be in our future, which would be wonderful.

Being involved with this project has been really exciting. I was recently interviewed by Karen Musgrave of The Alliance For American Quilts SOS and that interview is now cataloged with The Library Of Congress and is history forever. What a wonderful feeling that was to be interviewed and realize the future of the interview.

"2008 World Quilt Festival"

I have just been informed that my fiber art quilt "IMAGES" will be exhibited at the "2008 World Quilt Festival" in Shanghai, China in November. What was so nice of them to do was send me a ticket to the show. Now, if I only had the plane ticket to get to Shanghai! It is the thought that counts and I am honored that my work will be in Shanghai!

My work "Images" is currently at the Museum of Americas Quilts Society, Paducah, Kentucky. Wow! I am honored. The next stop for "Images" will be the International Quilt Study Center, Lincoln, Nebraska. What I have read and know about the International Quilt Study Center it is a must visit for all fiber artist, quilters and just for anyone interested in fiber. It is on my short list of must visits.
