Created in the first of two workshops with Marjolein Dallinga, I went home and re-worked this piece a little bit after the second workshop. There is always something new to learn.

Mysterious Way of WorkingJOANN MURDOCK
An adventurous way to add new skills to our felt making process, the class was directed to create a mysterious art work without an inkling of how the final project would be used. I sometimes create my own felt pieces without a drawing, and this experimental exercise resonated for me. Freed from expectations of howContinue reading “Mysterious Way of Working

Skyler’s FriendsAmy Andrews Payleitner
“Skyler’s Friends” quilt was an absolute joy to make! Skyler is a special girl, she’s artistic and she loves animals–butterflies, unicorns, raccoons, birds, bugs! It was a blast to create for Skyler so she has a yummy and soft quilt she can cuddle with.

Dinosaurs and Bricks IIStaci Raymond
This is technically my third quilt using the unusual combination of dinosaurs and bricks. I enjoy exploring the combination of prehistoric and industrial with a bit of whimsy thrown in. The dancing shrimp, bright colors, and shimmery quilting thread make it even more fun.

Volute ChambersCheryl Reynolds-Fefles
Created in Marjolein Dallinga’s Beyond Resist workshop. By cutting through my partially felted piece, hidden colors appeared and created unique, organic forms.
