After finishing her formal education at Cairn University (B.S.) and Wheaton College (M.A.), she took her first quilting class. Initially, Loewen worked with commercial fabrics and created traditional quilts, many for family and friends. It did not take long before Loewen discovered serious artists working in the medium of quilt making. After her first class in 2002, with Nancy Crow, a pioneer and lauded master of the medium, Loewen began the pursuit of quilt making as an art form. To have more control over the hue, value, and color intensity of her textiles, Loewen took up dyeing her own fabrics. This required her to learn a whole new skill set which greatly expanded the range of colors she could use in her work. Loewen has exhibited quilts in national and international shows in the United States, both juried and invitational and won awards for her work starting in 1997. Between 1999 and 2006 while Loewen lived in New Zealand, her work was juried into local and national exhibits and appeared in issues of the New Zealand Quilter Magazine. One of her quilts, Color Study #3 (2014) graces the cover of one of her husband Shawn Loewen’s academic books. Winona’s Garden (2012), a pivotal quilt in Loewen’s artmaking journey, was juried into the annual Quilts=Arts=Quilts ‘13 exhibition at the Schweinfurth Art Center in Auburn, New York. Midnight Garden (2015) received an honorable mention as part of Quilts=Arts=Quilts ’15. Junglescape (2015) was included in Circular Abstractions - Bull’s Eye Quilts curated by Nancy Crow. This show originated at the Muskegon Museum of Art, in Michigan, and traveled to four more museums between 2016 and 2019. Butterfly Garden (2016) was featured in Quilt National ’17 at The Dairy Barn Arts Center in Athens, Ohio, and won the Persistence Pays and Heartland Awards. The International Quilt Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska, acquired Butterfly Garden for its collection. Garden of Innocence (2018) was juried in Quilt National ’19 and won the Outstanding Machine Pieced Quilt Award and Desert Garden (2018) was on view as part of Quilts=Art=Quilts ’19. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv
