Shredded fabric, machine quilted. When I am driving and approach a hill that has tall trees on each side of the road I always expect to see Lake Michigan – even if I am in Deerfield, Champaign or Missouri. This quilt was created in Lenore Crawford’s Shredd Fabric Art Quilt Workshop.

Grandpa Sam’s RavineLinda Feinberg
Shredded fabric, machine quilted. My grandparents lived in Glencoe when I was growing up. Their backyard merged into ravines which my grandfather, Sam Feinberg, painted in different seasons. I own the winter ravine painting and have wanted to use it as inspiration for a piece for some time. When I took the IQI workship withContinue reading “Grandpa Sam’s Ravine

Wide AwakeLinda Feinberg
Shredded fabric art quilt; machine quilting. When the December 12, 2014 issue of Science was published the cover photo of a hoatzin bird captured my imagination – wondering how birds evolved.

Sun Went Down, Turned Around, Came Back Up as the MoonLinda Feinberg
