She recently came from San Diego, California, where she was a partner in Studio 3 Spanish Village Art Center in Balboa Park. She did demonstrations, taught classes and displayed her art there for four years. Hutchings creates quilted landscapes and ab- stract designs using fabric, thread, paint, ink and just about anything else that can enhance the image. Often, she uses her own nature photographs printed on fabric. She quilts these images and further adds to them to bring out details and give her work a 3-D effect.
