Quilting Machine

I recently received a grant from the Louisiana Cultural Economy Foundation to acquire a quilting machine.  This makes it possible for me to machine quilt my large pieces myself.  I am attaching a photo of a red and yellow piece that is incomplete. 



This is the piece after it was finished.  I hand dyed the fabric, machine quilted it, and made fabric beads for embellishment.
