Monday, July 14, 2003

Quilting out of the box. That's what you will find at Cathleen Richardson Bailey: An Artist's Journey. Fabric painting, beading, embroidery, and stump work are just some of the ingredients that this quilter has applied to fabric in magical works of artistry. Enjoy discovering the intriguing array of quilts on this site or explore some of Bailey's other talents including her writing and photography. She also shares her experiences in teaching children about the Underground Railroad through reenactment as a part of her Artist Residency at Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Her quilt, "Shh" was a part of the 2001 quilt exhibit, Threads of Freedom: The Underground Railroad Story in Quilts. Go there to see Underground Railroad Quilts that don't give a sugar coated myth.
