Nurtured from childhood to create with my hands, I continue the journey of playing piano, working with watercolors/collage art, taking photos, creating good-tasting cuisine, and yes, playing with fabric.
Beginning with my first crewel embroidery project at the age of eight (and eventually sewing shortly thereafter), working with fibers has been a great love for me. I discovered the joy of quilting in 1996 and have never looked back.
I began as a traditional quilter and in the past couple years have ventured into the area of art quilts. I still return to the my ""roots"" as a quilter, but the freedom of art quilting is definitely feeding my soul.
I am currently a local yoga and health education instructor for local community colleges. I also have a small holistic health practice here in Southern California.
I enjoy a diverse and interesting life, full of people I love and work I enjoy.
I am a proud member of TAFA - The Textile and Fiber Art List. Find me at: http://www.tafalist.com/profile/ommadethreads/
