#4005 A Modern Pandemic
82” x 46”
In this modern age, when an epidemic canvases the world, we are one. When origins and carriers are unknown, find compassion for all. Even in the darkness there are windows of the bluest skies, have hope.

Machine-pieced and appliqued to the hand-dyed background. Longarm machine quilted with ruler/straight-line work and free-hand quilting in the background. Hand appliqued “pollen” circles.

#4006 Push-Pull
70” x 65”
Life tugs us in different directions, and I designed Push-Pull thinking about how the constraints of societal norms try to push and pull us into boxes of conformity. The quilting was inspired by considering magnetic fields and how magnets have the similar push-pull forces acting on ferrous metallic objects within their spheres of influence.
