Rockhounding, the art of discovering and collecting rocks and minerals, is a family hobby started by my grandmother. The hobby was then passed on to my mother, myself and my children.

Each quilt block I created represents an interpretation of agates, inspired by my personal collection and the wonders of nature. These blocks translate the joy of rock hunting into a visual and tactile form.
