An art quilt!!!

Here is something new for me.  An Art Quilt!  I put this on my Etsy Shop. It was a lot of fun to do but I prefer to paint or thread paint.  Most of these fabrics are my own dyed or hand painted fabrics.  The best part of making this Art Quilt is that I have lots more small pieces of my fabrics and now I know what to do with them.
This measures 14 x 19".

Upcoming events

August 2,3 and 4, 2012 in Harwich, MA, I will be exhibiting and selling my hand dyed fabrics at the Bayberry Quilters of Cape Cod annual Quilt Show.


Fiber Art College is where I am teaching Soy Wax batik on a scarf in September.  The Fiber Art College itself is a treat. Searsport is a lovely location, not far from Belfast, Maine. Check it out!

Hope to see you at one of these events.

New Etsy listings

I have been playing with color, fabric manipulation and more to try for some different looks.  Here is where you buy them: Etsy Shop
This is so much fun!  One does have a lot of control in this dyeing process which is perfect when there other things on your mind!

When I look at this fat quarter, I see trees, leaves and flowers than can be cut from this interesting piece.
What do you think?
