Do you have a group that features guest speakers and lectures in textile arts? My lectures and trunk shows are ideal for mid to large groups. I have a small group flex-option as well. My lectures and workshops are available in person or online. I am booking for 2023-2024, contact me for my fee schedule and to book me in!

My Journey as a Textile Artist
I will take you through the 30 years of my career as a textile artist. I’ll show you my quilts from my early years and how I have developed into a thread painting artist focusing on sustainability in my work. The in-person lecture includes a trunk show of quilts from my career and digital images in a slide presentation, online option available as well.
