Welcome to The Art of the Quilt.

The Art of the Quilt presents the best in contemporary quilts for collectors, corporations, and museums.

I offer carefully selected quilts by some of the most remarkable artists at work today.

In addition, I offer a a wide variety of museum-quality loan exhibitions of both antique and contemporary quilts.

I also provide an exceptional range of quilt-related services, including collection building and management, lectures, and appraisals.

I look forward to hearing from you.
