What This Show is About...
Fiber and Nature, they’re as complimentary a pair as Microcosms and Macrocosms. One reflects the other in a beautiful conversation about the nature of life. The Art Quilts you’ll see here tap into that conversation, offering a snapshot into the layers of Life as we experience them…One stitch at a time.
