This quilt represents my direction into the digital fiber world. PhotoShop and other media are fascinating tools for use in the 21 century. I combine my photographs with my painted fabrics in multiple ways, printing directly onto various substrates, creating a variety of stitched textural compositions. I call this work Digital Fiber. I have just written a book about my techniques, inspiration and presentation techniques.
