Brenetta Ward enjoys combining traditional quilting techniques and ethnic fabrics to create simple, elegant designs.  My quilted pieces celebrate life – the joys, triumphs, memories and sorrows of living.  I view each composition as a page with a visual story to tell.  My fiber art celebrates significant events in everyday life.  My techniques include piecing, applique', photo-transfers, embellishments and quilting.
