Artist Commentary

Label

"My quilts are a culmination of a lifelong exposure to quilts and sewing, and my love of history and need to create. Old textiles from all over the worlds are an endless source of inspiration and wonder. Art school skills and years of experience with the sewing machine allow me to design and produce quilts that satisfy my desire to pay tribute to textile creators of the past." -Pat Holly "My personal goal in quilting is to continue to make machine-made quilts that are inspired by the traditions in quilting. Traveling and teaching inspire my quilts too. I want to push myself to be as creative as possible and use the sewing machine to create my work." -Sue Nickels
