Guest Artist at the Sandia Heights Studio Arts Tour, Albuquerque, NM
Saturday-Sunday, September 12-13, 2026, 10am-5pm
It's an honor to be included again this year in this prestigious studio art tour! There will be 40 artists at 13 stops in northeast Albuquerque, off Tramway, north of Paseo del Norte. I'll be at Stop #10, very near Tramway and Live Oak (just north of Paseo del Norte) with my latest Art Quilts, Fabric Collage, and Fiber Fusion Vessels & Vases. This 23rd annual studio art tour includes work in a wide variety of art media. A portion of proceeds will benefit La Mesa Arts Academy, a nonprofit organization that provides free visual and performance arts classes after school for students at La Mesa Elementary School in Albuquerque's International District.
Notes: A preview of art by all tour artists will be exhibited through the month of August at The Gallery ABQ.
Also, during September and October another exhibition will be at the Albuquerque Sunport on the lower level as you enter/exit.
Throughout the year, a display of Sandia Heights Artists' work can be seen at the Tramway Plaza Event Centre.

Fabric Landscape Decollage
Create a unique 11"x14" fabric landscape, in any style or color scheme, finished in one day and
ready for a frame! It will look like a painting - a "fabric painting"! No stitching needed, and no
experience is necessary. With many chances to change your mind as your work evolves throughout
the day, it’s easy and fun. Bring a landscape photo for inspiration, or choose from hundreds of
Debbie's pictures in class. Then choose from thousands of her landscape fabrics to make your
own special scene. No templates or patterns are needed. Instead, you'll learn free-form cutting
techniques to create a fabric landscape all your own. She will also show you how to alter this
technique so your finished decollage can be quilted or stitched later, if you prefer, and will also
discuss mounting and framing options. You'll finish your fabric landscape in class! See class
samples on the Landscapes pages and also on the Student Gallery pages.
Fiber Fusion Vessels
Learn to make these exquisite vessels by using a glass vase as a foundation, then bonding silk and
other fibers to it using a special varnish. Take it home to dry in a few days, then remove it from
the vase and you have a beautifully unique Fiber Fusion Vessel. Insert an electronic candle or fairy
lights for a soft glow that really highlights the fibers. You'll have fun playing with all the
fibers and choosing the colors you want for your vessel. These fibers are incredibly soft yet so
strong when bonded together. Add some Angelina fiber, Firestar, yarns, threads or other
embellishments for sparkle if you like (included in the class fee). The varnish does not make the
vessel shiny or overly stiff, just sturdy enough to hold its shape. It will still be soft and textured
and oh, so touchable. There's nothing quite like it! Debbie will also demonstrate how to bond
fibers to a glass vase permanently, as pictured on the bottom of the first Fiber Fusion Vessels
page - it's super easy! A detailed handout is included, so you can make more vessels at home. They
make great gifts! See more examples on the Fiber Fusion Vessels pages.
New Class! Fiber Fusion Vases
In this class, you'll learn to bond fibers to a glass vase, an ornament and you'll make a 5"x7"
fiber landscape on glass to be inserted into a frame. Go home with 3 finished projects! (This class
is currently in development, with more details to come.)
