Dream Houses

Background

15/03/2007 - Like many of my quilts, this one began with the head of a woman (what I see when I look in the mirror). The two children followed naturally – and the cup of coffee, over which the problems of life are discussed. I am trying out a new kind of ‘soft’ framing and this one became filled with dreams of a better life. .
