Welcome!

private collection
My quilts are a mix of traditional and art quilting techniques. I love color. My designs are often inspired by the beauty of nature and the changing seasons. I like to use shapes from nature and play with them, experimenting with color and texture. Sometimes designs come from the fabrics I find and sometimes from just an idea, what would happen if I did...? I enjoy learning new ways of doing things and changing things from what they were before. Quilts are my passion, joy and connection to the creative spirit in all of us.
Many of my quilts are for sale. Those shown with prices on my website are currently available. You will also find some on my Etsy shop. Link is below. If you are interested in one that is shown with a price on my website please contact Barbara to learn more. I'd love to tell you the story of the quilt. I use Square invoicing for payment and offer free domestic shipping. Inquiries for custom work are always welcome.
