And the answer is....



Did you guess who the latest round of trivia was about?  It is our textile artist:  Monique Kleinhans




When she is not diving in her piles of fabric to create beautiful quilts, unique wall art or her quilted greeting cards, Monique can be found teaching and helping others create with fabric at Glacier Quilts, supporting her plant habit, at Swan River Gardens as well as leading theater workshops in the Valley and performing and directing with Seattle based touring company 'theater simple'.


(It's a good thing 'sleep' isn't on her top ten list!)




Much of Monique's work involves thread...and a lot of it.   She uses traditional quilting techniques along-side exploring different textures and dimensional elements, creating unique quilted art that has great depth and layers.











She works mainly off of photos that she takes while out enjoying the beautiful areas of Montana, although some of her pieces journey into a more whimsical world as well.






Check out her website to see more of what she is currently working on in her studio 
or to commission a unique creation tailor made for you.
