| East West 18" x 20" Made originally with an East-West theme for the 2005 SCVQA show, with my first painting on fabric, a painted Chinese picture and a crochet doily. The flowers were cut from printed fabric. |
 |
| Sea Vessels 18" x 22" One of my first wall hangings, designed to match the sea theme at Brighton Marina, and the curtains in the spare bedroom, where it now resides. Paper piecing method used. |
 |
| Sailing 12" x 10" A very small sea theme for the spare bedroom - this one has a painted sea with appliqued boats and machine quilting. This is first of several wall hangings where I have a pieced border using the fabrics/colors that are in the main picture. I like this effect. |
 |
| Hamilton Ct 14" x 11" A very simplified impression of the block of flats across the water from St. Vincents Ct, mostly pieced with some machine applique. |
 |
In the Woods. 16" x 13" Painted background and painted appliqued trees, plus some printed fabric.

| Fremont Older Open Space, Cupertino, from Hunter's Point. 14" x 18" A favorite place to hike, with quite a steep climb at the end. This view is from the top looking back down the path. Raw edge applique and machine embroidery. |
 |
| Violets 12" x 10" The background is painted and the petals and leaves placed to match the background colors. |
 |
| My Favorite Things 21" x 19" I had two attempts at producing the stained glass effect on the lamp. This version has a solid black background with the pieces fused in place leaving gaps for the "lead". The rose is three dimensional. Another matching pieced border. |
What an incredible array of work! I'm amazed by the number of different techniques you've used. I especially like "Zelda," the sampler, and "Diamonds and Squares." My very favorite is the charming "Critters." It's so playful and it makes me to keep looking atit as I discover a new cat. Only change I would make to your wonderful blog-give the sizes of all pieces. Thanks so very much for sharing your work.
