Pretending You Don’t Exist is a book I made (well, really, it’s four little quilts sewn together in a book shape) that is currently at the San Diego Downtown Library through October. It’s on the first floor in the central area, with a bunch of other book arts about banning books. The show is called In the Land of… and is from FIG (Feminist Image Group), a group I’ve been involved in for over 10 years here in San Diego. Here’s the front…

And the back…

I’m sure I have official pictures somewhere. Just not sure where. It’s about 9×12″ on each side. There are acrylic stands holding it up.

I just dropped off two pieces to The Front Art Gallery down in San Ysidro, for their Infinite Rivers show, opening July 12 and continuing through September 13.

They will have My Body. My Choice.

and Same As It Ever Was

Seeking the Crone’s Protection is at Quilt National, at the Dairy Barn in Athens, OH, through the beginning of September, and then traveling.

Well I am in Collection C, which will be at the Historical and Cultural Society of Clay County in Moorhead, MN, Jun 4-Sep 3, 2027.

My newest big piece, Portrait of One Self, will be part of Quilts=Art=Quilts at the Schweinfurth Art Center, in Auburn, NY, from Oct 25, 2025-Jan 4, 2026.

I will also have multiple pieces at the Virginia Quilt Museum from January to March, 2026, as part of a dual show; more on that later, but know I will be at the closing reception in late March (Spring Break road trip, baby!).

  1. Love your work. Thanks to controversy, I found you. Perhaps the negativity will bring more focus to your thoughtful, well-executed works of art. Not your Grandma’s quilting….but I am a Grandma and a quilter and I for one love what you are doing. Thanks

  2. This is good stuff. Just because we work in fabric doesn’t mean we shouldn’t attack ‘adult’ subject matter. There are quilt shows and then there are quilt shows. And btw, I’m 54 years old and sick and tired of the notion that female genitals are somehow shocking or disgusting. Men? Their ‘bits’ are on display in every art gallery on earth, turned into architecture, enshrined as a major form. Just because ours don’t dangle out the front doesn’t mean they’re gross.

  3. I’m sitting in the UK following the controversy surrounding your quilt. I find it amazing that there are still people in the world finding the female/male body “disgusting”. I wish more quilt/textile artists were making political art like yours. Well done to you and those who are prepared to face the critics by presenting such work.

  4. I just wanted to commt that I love your work! I live in San Diego, and am sad to see I missed your recent show… I do not see a mailing list option on your site, but was hoping there was a way to keep in the loop for future shows?

    Keep up the amazing work!

  6. Just saw your quilt Beyond the Concrete at the Quilt National Show in Athens, Ohio and loved it! So I looked you up and am thrilled by all of your work. I love political, statement quilts and really appreciate your attitude and awesome artistic ability. Will try to catch more of your work when I can.
