The current wall quilt, that I’ve been working on, is finished. I don’t want to show the whole photograph until it’s been exhibited, but here is a detail.
It is a photo image with stick figures silk screened over it, hand dyed silk velvet with pieced cotton satin stitch-appliqued on top. Hand quilted and machine quilted. [...]
It must be due to the cool, wet Spring that we’ve had, that the peonies are outstanding this year. I think they have inspired me to create a wall quilt that I’m working on now. Too soon to post a picture, but stay tuned!
Here is a photograph of two wilted tulips taken at dusk on the dinning room table, way under exposed. After playing in photoshop this was the result. Not bad; I think.
I am a fiber artist whose always been in love with anything "fuzzy." My evolution has been from a weaver to knitter to silk painter to quilter. I knit for relaxation and currently do pieced, fused, and/or appliqued, art quilts inspired by my photographs.
