Her most significant artistic achievements, however, were her quilts.

In the last 25 years of her life she completed over two-dozen quilts all of which she gifted to her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. These heirlooms will serve as a lasting reminder of her creativeness, inventiveness, and devotion to family.
