GUEST ARTIST – Catherine Dumas
ARTIST STATEMENT:
I’ve always been able to look at something and figure out how to make or build it. At a young age I
taught myself knitting, embroidery, counted cross-stitch and sewing. I discovered quilting in my late 20’s and soon it became a passion. Never afraid of trying a new technique, always eager to learn more. Incorporating machine embroidery with my quilting is an area I really enjoy. I have a wonderful quilting studio with all the bells and whistles to keep me very busy.
