Artist's Statement:

Pain a dirty four letter word. I won't let it stop me, though. Give me needle, thread, a few yards of fabric and my sewing machine; I'll show pain who's boss. Pain has inspired me to seek creative ways to rise above the nocuous nerve stimulus; fibromyalgia degenerative disc/joint disease and stroke threaten. A positive attitude, a purposeful life, and inspiration of fellow quilters; pain you don't stand a chance.
