I had never seen or even knew about hobo quilts until I came across this one at the Historic Society and Information Center in Blanding Utah. Akin to the Railroad quilts used by escaping slaves, the symbols all have a meaning.
Travel is an exciting & large part of my life, combined with creating fabric, stitching art quilts & enjoying textile traditions around the world.
I work in the quilting industry; exhibit, judge, curate, tutor & write.
These are some of the threads of my life.
