Mon AmourLampkins Tracy
Hand dyed (bleached), layered fused fabric, hand quilted. A play on the Chicago flag. Had a lot of fun bleaching the turquoise batik. Cutting out the layered skyline was tedious, but well worth it. It turned out beautifully.

Fused fabrics, hand quilted. This is a piece inspired by the election art work of the 2008 election. My first attempt at a portrait quilt; think it turned out great & it was a lot of fun.

Vintage hand-appliqued and hand embroidered quilt top, hand-quilted. I purchased this 1930’s quilt top about 30 years ago, along with enough fabric for the back. The appliqué is incredibly well-done. I designed the quilting and finished the quilt in honor of the anonymous artist who started it.

Folded fabric, tied, bead and button embellishment. This is one of a series I am making called Something From Nothing. All fabrics and embellishments are scraps and odds and ends.

Cut & pieced myself, chose own colors, I quilted on regular machine. Making this quilt was a challenge, seemed complicated, but was fun putting it all together.
