I have worked on a lot of projects over the years but this is the work I am most proud of to date!
This piece highlights an issue that is so important to African American women, the high maternal mortality rate in women of color! Women of color are 3 times more likely to die from pregnancy related issues than white women and if that isn't bad enough, 2/3rds of the death are preventable.
I am honored that my quilt is on display in an exhibit called Saying Her Piece at The National Quilt Museum in Paducah, KY from October 2022 to February 2023.
I'm very thankful and appreciative of the opportunity to have my work on display at TQM and to be able to highlight this preventable medical crisis.
Art Is Life!
