Indian Mats

Jan Aaron

Paper pieced, longarm quilted by Peggy Skaith, Overland Park, KS. I find myself always working with reds and blacks This time I added brown to the mix and kept the reds on the yellow to orange side of the color wheel. The floral outer border tied everything together.

Dragonfly

Jan Aaron

Collaged with silks, cottons, beads, sequins, angelina fibers and netting; free motion machine quilted. This is my first effort at collaging with fabrics. I have integrated the technique on several other projects – just in smaller pieces.

Diablo

Melanie Anderson

Machine pieced and quilted. I generally piece by trial and error. I also love using leftovers. So this is a “trial and error meets old shirts and leftovers” quilt.

Catawampus: A Diagonal, Askew Boook

Sue Babbs

Bobbin lace, free machine embroidery & book making techniques. The book demonstrates the meaning & historical usage of the work “catawampus” – diagonal; askew; awry; kitty-cornered; a fierce, imaginary animal.

Time Flies

Sue Babbs

The wings are worked in needle lace in silk and metallic threads. The clock face is made from Shrink Plastic, and the body is painted silk. The “numerals” on the clock face spell “Tempus Fugit” (the Latin for Time Flies). The needlelace wings were worked over a background photo of real dragonfly wings.
