Thread Vase
I love fabric, thread and sparkly fibers. My art is all about color and texture and how I can combine what I love into creations that are beautiful or meaningful. Mostly I make art quilts – lots of them. There’s always a box next to my sewing machine to catch the leftover threads as I sew and when it is full to overflowing, I empty it, mix the threads with other fibers, and turn the tangle into a new piece of art.
