In
1970, armed with advice from her grandmothers, Linda launched a quilting
project at a community mental health center and began her first quilt.
In 1987 she became a professional quiltmaker, and in 1989 a quilt artist.
For many years she had a dual career as a psychotherapist and an artist.
So often, the issues discussed in therapy were also represented in visual
form in the quilts. In 1999 she closed her psychotherapy practice
and moved fulltime into the studio. She now divides her time between
commissions for residential and corporate clients, noncommissioned exhibit
pieces, and quilt restoration. Linda's work has been exhibited in
juried shows and galleries, and published. It has been the featured
work in public space exhibits and can be found nationally in private collections.
