Hi, I'm Diana. I'm an artist and creator to the core, and quilting is not just my medium of choice, it's my passion. The joy I find in the art of quilting—the richness of being in the community, the tactile nature of the materials, and the thrill of learning the basics and then bending the rules-is something I love to share. My journey from traditional quilting to art quilting to a textile art focus has been an incredible adventure, and I'm excited to bring that same sense of wonder to you. 

My journey in the world of textile art has been marked by experimentation and success. I've recently delved into textile sculpture, pushing the boundaries of traditional quilting by removing negative space and engaging the area in and around each piece. To achieve the look I want, I dye much of my own fabric. My work has been recognized on a national and international level, with numerous pieces juried into shows and several successful solo exhibitions, including at prestigious institutions like the National Quilt Museum and the Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum. As a Juried Artist member of Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA) and a member of 4 Common Corners, an invitational art quilt group, I've had the privilege of sharing my work and techniques with a wider audience through episodes on The Quilt Show and PBS Quilting Arts TV. My work has also been featured in Quilting Arts Magazine (Summer 2024, Issue 122), Quiltfolk Magazine (Colorado edition), and Patchwork Professional, 2024.

I love to teach and believe in gently inviting each student to tap into their creativity. I offer both virtual and in-person lectures and in-person workshops. Please invite me to speak or lead a workshop!
