Dianne Finnegan: Australian quilt artist
Dianne Finnegan’s quilts are process driven and are inspired by the rough geometry of the landscape (she started as a geomorphologist), the possibilities of the cloth and old Australian quilts. They are made for bed or wall. Her quilts are in the Powerhouse Museum and collections in Australia, the USA, Canada, England and Scotland.

Dianne has a new exhibition hanging at a new gallery:

Dianne has made quilts for nearly thirty years and along the way has been president of The Quilters Guild NSW for the Bicentenary, exhibited internationally, curated exhibitions, explored the history of Australian quilts, written books and articles, fundraised, and travelled around the world teaching.
