Expanded Studio Space!
I’ve expanded my studio space at the Artists Atelier in Great Falls, VA, so I have room to show some larger quilts, plus scarves and purses printed from high quality photos of my work, new pillows, and note cards, plus signed copies of both my books, Artful Improv and Adventures in Improv Quilts.
