Welcome to Soulfull Hands, a Maryland-based fiber art practice where quilts aren’t just fabric—they’re stories, heritage, memory, and love made tangible. Through story quilts, I explore African American history, the African diaspora, and the ways fabric and stitch can carry meaning forward.
Selected Work
Stained Glass Windows
Underground Railroad Quilt
Aboriginal Whirls
A mural depicting a protest scene with black silhouettes of people holding signs with messages such as "AM I NOT A MAN AND A BROTHER?", "YOUR HANDS ARE FULL OF BLOOD", "WE SHALL NOT RIDE", "JOBS FOR ALL DECENT PAY NOW", "GIVE US THE VOTE", "I AM A MAN!", "NO JUSTICE NO PEACE", "I CAN'T BREATHE", and "WE WON'T GO BACK". The background is dark blue with white stars, and there is a figure with wings holding a lantern and leaves in the upper right corner. Gold text at the bottom reads "it's been a long time comin'".
