"My passion for applied decoration has led me to combine quilt patterns with the simple, yet elegant furniture that is associated so much with our idea of early American communities. It is my hope that this work resonates with the viewer and gives rise to the feelings of comfort one may feel in connection to the traditions and communities of our forbearers."
