Spotlight: Felice Dahlhausen

Art piece by Felice Dahlhausen

Art has always been a big part of Felice’s life. She earned a BFA from Kent State University in Art Education and enjoyed teaching high school art students for thirty-two years.

In 2014 she created Felice Quilt Designs and began to produce quilts and patterns to teach others. She has presented at quilt guilds, taught classes and has had work accepted into regional and international quilt and art shows such as the International Quilt Festival, Pacific International Quilt Show, Erie Art Museum, Bay Arts Annual Show, Heights Arts Spotlight Gallery, Mansfield Art Center, Valley Art Center, and New Masters 3: Women Artists of NE Ohio. Felice’s work Dyeing for A Cup of Tea is part of the Frank Klein Art Quilt Collection. Her work has been in articles in Art Quilting Studio and Quiltmania magazines.

Felice decided to create fiber art strictly for her artistic growth and invest time in building a body of work she currently shares on her website and in shows. She loves travel, nature, and art and finds inspiration in all.

Felice is a member of international and local fiber arts organizations such as Studio Art Quilt Associates, Northern Ohio Textile Artists, and Layers of Textile Art. You can find more information about Felice at www.felicequiltdesigns.com

Currently, she has been experimenting with different surface design techniques such as Shibori resist dyeing and thickened dye printing as a sour for her art quilt works. She considers stitches to be an integral textural option in using her artistic voice. She considers herself a life-long learner to improve and inspire her creative process in fiber arts.
