Quilt Drawing #25 - String of Breaths

Quilt Drawing #25 - String of Breaths celebrates the joy and wonderment that the textile traditions of embroidery and hand quilting bring to my studio practice. Hand quilting is of great importance in my work because it is the equivalent to the act of drawing. The visual language of quilted lines and embroidered shapes is influenced and restrained by the power of simplicity. This particular quilt speaks to the power of our breath; its phenomenal strength, beauty and presence in our daily lives.
