Carolyn Shelby - Journey of Hope
Artist Hometown: Westampton
Medium: Fiber Art
Location in MD Anderson: Janet Knowles Breast Cancer Center, Inside Left of Entrance of Waiting Room
Artist Bio:
Carolyn Shelby started quilting in 2011, a year before she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
As she went through treatment at Cooper, Carolyn’s quilting group cried with her, rejoiced with her and encouraged her.
Carolyn puts her heart into everything she creates. She wants people to draw strength from the love that she pours into her work.
This fabric art wall hanging uses batik fabric and various threads, yarns, beads and crystals, inspired by her work with quilts.
Quilting gives Carolyn great joy. She quilts because she is a Survivor.
“Cancer showed me that I am creative and that I can use my creativity to make a difference.”
