Bargello Quilts Photo Gallery -- Updated
Contemporary quilt wall hangings displayed as pictures of quilts
-- 5 New Quilts Added as of 10-24-2015 --Bargello = Strip Quilts with an Attitude!Apparent movement is the main attraction for quilts designed in the bargello tradition. The placement of the individual pieces along with the varying widths of the strips produces what your eyes perceive as movement -- which tends to be very engaging and interesting.
Bargello Quilts Photo Gallery consists of photos of my work in fiber from 1975 through present. They are being presented with the hope that other quilters can glean ideas they can incorporate into their own quilting efforts. Originally published in 2010, this current edition includes 4 new quilts finished in 2015.
Thank you for being interested in my work. I had a lot of fun creating it and am now having a lot of fun sharing it.

About the Artist
I guess you could say I came to doing art work by the back door. My formal schooling was in the area of clinical psychology . . . Bradley University, B.S. 1965 and M.A. 1969. But even as a child I wanted to grow up to be a jeweler. I was always fascinated by pretty stones. I would pry them out of old pieces of costume jewelry and squirrel them away in a small, fuzzy, green velvet box lined with cotton and have fantasies about whether or not they were real.
My professional writing career began in 1980 with the publication of Jean’s Arizona Fan Palm, cutting directions for a 3.2 carat citrine (you can see it in the Handcrafted Jewelry Photo Gallery book in this Kick-Start Creativity series), in the January issue of the Lapidary Journal Gem Cutting Magazine. Many years later I was submitting step-by-step articles for original jewelry designs to various international magazines.
And now, 2012, I’m enjoying the writing and publishing of various kinds of books for Kindle. I’ll be 70 years old this year. It’s been quite a ride. I hope you enjoy my offerings.
