This week I am excited to share that my art quilt “Invisible Borders” will be exhibited at the International Quilt Festival in Houston this October, in the debut of a new artist exhibit group:
Soul Stories: Threads of Existence
We are visionary art quilters, weaving the threads of ancient myths, archetypes, and cosmic energies to illuminate the sacred narratives of the human soul. Through our collaborative creations, we offer a portal to the mysteries that connect us all, inviting the world to journey with us through the divine tapestry of existence.
Our exhibit will travel to a museum and other venues in 2026, and beyond. I am honored to be part of this collaboration of 20 fiber artists.
On the top of the above collage, I have shown a detail of my piece “Invisible Borders”, which tells the story of what happens when a wolf family passes over the border of a National Park like Yellowstone, into unprotected territory. You can see the full piece on my Gallery Page.
In addition I will have a 2nd piece “250 Years of American Wilderness” in the Landscape category at Houston Quiltfest. It celebrates the history of our National Parks and public lands, and honors the park rangers and caretakers of these precious resources.
This quilt will travel to a Semi-Quincentennial museum exhibit in 2026. This is the 3rd Semi-Quin piece I have made for museum exhibits opening in July 2026, for our nation’s 250th birthday. You can see this also on my Gallery Page.
Hopefully you are also making your own historic Semi-Quin quilt to document this moment in our nation’s history. We have plenty of topics to potentially put in a quilt that will become part of history. What would you wish to document in such a quilt? Imagine for a moment…what would you like to express to viewers 50 years from now, at a 300th anniversary exhibit of historic quilts?
I have included a beautiful new Forest quilt backing, and 2 exclusive Wolf-themed panels, in the fabric collage above. We hope you like them!
Sharing our passion for fabric…..
