Honky tonk
31 W by 35 T
$400
Based on the country and western music of
Tobey Keith, this piece uses a background of
modified log cabins constructed of corduroy
and cottons overlaid with a figure of a cowboy
cut from denim. The central corduroy
squares feature a screen print of a Ford truck
(mine, of course) A larger piece suitable for a
bunk bed in the same theme is also
available.
Stars in Heaven
24 W by 19 T
$75
Day by Day
47 w by 47 T
$600
The background of this piece is called
StairSteps to Heaven, my grandmother's
favorite quilt pattern. This was a study
piece for ' When the Saints (go Marching
in)', featured in the Figurative Gallery
Inspired by the musical Godspell, this piece
features machine embroidered tic' marks
digitized from a scanned drawing of a
traditional method of marking time. The
multiple layers represent the repeats of the
song and the repeats of our daily lives seen
as small things in our life or as major events
