Fiber

Fiber has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Some of my earliest memories are of holding skeins of yarn for my mother as she knit, crocheted, and spun wool. I carried those traditions forward—learning to sew, crochet, and knit as a young adult—finding calm in the rhythm of loops and stitches.

Quilting became central to my practice in college. My earliest quilts were hand-pieced and stitched, each one marking milestones and passages—heartbreaks, friendships, weddings, and new babies. For me, quilting is an act of care. Each stitch carries intention into the future, wrapping the recipient in warmth and love.

In recent years, I have focused on community quilts, bringing people together to make something greater than themselves. These projects—whether made for someone facing illness or grief—become collective offerings of comfort, connection, and resilience.

I create quilts, wall hangings, and functional fiber works that celebrate homemaking as an art form: practical, beautiful, and radical in its refusal to be undervalued. My work honors tradition while weaving stories of love, memory, and community into cloth.
