Journals

I got involved in the second year of the Journal Quilt Project, sponsored by Quilts, Inc. and Karey Bresenhan. I made two journals for each month and then chose the better of the two to include in my nine that were displayed at the show. Two years later I finished the series, doing October, November, and December. One of my pieces is traveling with the book Creative Quilting: The Journal Quilt Project (but has since returned home and is available here: July), I've donated several to various causes, some are not all that great, and I'm posting the remaining here as affordable art for sale.

Ventanas

Ventanas is the Spanish word for "windows". The image that inspired this series is from a photograph I took that showed a window frame mirrored within another window frame. This layering of vertical and horizontal lines and shapes captured my imagination and I have played with this image on and off for several years. At this point they no longer resemble windows but have become an abstraction that plays with the literal.
