Unveiling...

Here is the cover of Twelve by Twelve: The International Art Quilt Challenge!

Isn't it superfantastic? We are so thrilled! I am beyond honored to have my work and my name on the cover of an art book. (That's my quilt in the upper left corner.)

The book will come out in March 2011. It includes beautiful photographs of all 144 quilts created as part of the twelve theme challenges our 12x12 group did through 2007 to 2009. Each of the "twelves" wrote a chapter discussing design process, inspiration, techniques and her experience as part of the group. It's inspiring and full of such thoughtful insights about living a creative life and collaborating with other artists.
