After I relocated with my husband from Germany to Massachusetts
in 1992, I started quilting. It was most likely my mathematical background that
I was attracted by the geometric patterns in traditional quilt making.
From the beginning, I created my own contemporary designs. I prefer bright and
brilliant colors. Most of the ideas for my work have been derived from the
surrounding environment: the four seasons in New England, and the rock formations
in Arizona.
Selected by juries, my quilts were displayed at national quilt shows:
1995 and 1997 at Images in Marlborough, MA
two times at Quilter's Gathering in Westford, MA
1997 and 1999 at the annual quilt show of the Arizona Quilters Guild in Phoenix,
and recently in Chandler
For my wall hanging Arizona, I received a design award and an honorable mention.
