“I want to make beautiful things, even if nobody cares.”
― Saul Bass – 1920 – 1996 American Graphic Designer
This quote by Saul Bass really does resonate with me. The quilts and collages I make are very much for me and if someone likes my work, that’s a huge bonus.
I have been extremely lucky in my quilting journey, from the early days of paper piecing through to creating unique collage quilts that have gained entrance into Quiltcon USA and into private and public collections. I owe a huge thanks to quilters and artists who have encouraged me with my work to push myself to the limits.
