An element of serendipity is integral to the art of quilt making. Even with the most meticulous planning, the fusion of colour, shape and texture through fabric and stitching yields often unexpected results. This quality of surprise encourages the quiltmaker to explore new techniques and possibilities.

Each quilt is not only a piece of art but is also a functional and enduring textile form bringing pleasure and comfort for many years.
