PRESS PRESENTS
ARTISTS
Current Artist: Patti Zwick
On view through May 10th
Patti Zwick, Iowa City artist, made her first quilt in 1984. Measuring 91” x 91”, with over 4,000 pieces, it was the spark for then ext two decades of passionate quilt making.
Patti’s work has been called “Amish with a twist”. One viewer commented “I can almost hear the heartbeats of her quiltz.” Lively colors and textures within traditional designs are the trademarks of these fabric creations.
These quilted treasures of all sizes have found their way into the hearts and homes of people in 43 states and 26 countries.
Patti also has a line of colorful handmade greeting cardz. They are available at all of the New Pioneer Co-ops (Iowa City, Coralville, and Cedar Rapids), and Prairie Lights bookstores, and The Book End at the Iowa City Public Library.
