Serendipity is a rare opportunity for the public to see and enjoy the ingenuity of DEE ROSING'S sixteen most recent art quilt creations and to appreciate the beauty of the spirit of the artist herself.

Artist's Statement:

"Since early childhood, I have been fascinated by needles and thread. For many years, the interest was channeled into sewing for six daughters and our home. Mostly self taught, I have been quilting seriously since 1984 when I met Rebekka Seigel. After meeting Rebekka, I became excited about designing original quilts. Since then, I have taken classes from many national teachers and have exhibited throughout the country.

The quilts in this show are "fabric collages" that display my love of fabric, layers and embellishments. While I have been quilting for a long time, my work tends to focus more on individual images rather than patterns.

My hope is that my work will engage the viewer by telling stories of my beliefs and the influence of family and friends. The thread that bands them together comes from my spiritual response to family happenings."

THIS IS FABRIC SOUL FOOD!
