Artist Commentary

Label

"Made in a medallion style, this quilt is based on the Spring Blossom pattern. Quilting is only a hobby for me. I never sell my quilts. I still have them all with the exception of 'Tennessee Pink Marble.' Quilts to me mean home, family, warmth and sweet memories. Sharing them by entering quilt shows brings me much joy and I do appreciate all those people who share their quilts with me."
