flames and circles




Finally, I get a moment to start to add some new quilts to my pages. The first one is "mountain, tree and sun". At 40x40" it represents a perfect day on the meadow as the colors almost dance against the sky. At least that is how I see it.

Here are some other quilts. The first is called "two suns". I love the imaginary world and great colors it creates.

Then there is "prairie sun." Can you guess I grew up on a farm in the Midwest.

And there is also the ocean with the sun reflecting on the water.

Another newer quilt is "abstractions on the night."  Perhaps the moon above the horizon?

This quilt is already sold. "Desert days."

Then there are some slightly earlier "Flames". Don't you love the organic curves in this quilt.

Isn't the "blue circle" stunning? I framed this one for a more formal look.

Three new "flames". These could be table runners or they could be used as wall art either sold separately or as an arrangement. At 12 x 60 inches there are lots of places they will fit.

And of course they can be hung the other direction also.

This one is "blue flame." It is about 38x100 inches long. Don't you love how the flames waft and spire into wonderful delicate wisps? All images are by my wonderful  photographer John Polak.

  1. Just beautiful! Do you mount the, on black canvas or do you bind them in black. It makes them pop, just that little bit of black.

  7. I'm interested in using your technique using my father's neckties as the fabric and maybe some hand embroidery. I'm not a quilter but I want to use it as a wall hanging.
