One fabric in quilt body; cut up, pieced back together & rearranged in design. Borders are complementary fabric. Personally pieced, then longarm quilted by Barbara Deletzke

Hand marbled paper, handmade box and lid, bead embellishment. Colors & style of marbling was learned in a workshop. Box was made from templates of heavy cardboard.

This fabric was painted & sunprinted with natural plants. Free motion threadwork was then done on top only. Finally it was free-motion quilted. After centerpiece was painted and stitched, the borders were designed & thread painted. The “natural” theme was carried out with the free-motion quilting.

Hand cut circles were arranged in a composition. Free-motion threadwork and quilting hold layers together. This has been designed with all polyester fabric. The grid / lattice was achieved with soldering, a technique I recently learned. Can you figure out the name?

I want to celebrate the lowly overlooked dandelion. I used a copyright-free pattern, thread painting, water soluble stabilizer, as well as beading to embellish my now dimensional Happy Dandelion. (Crazy B’s Group Project)

Wet felted with various wool fibers, with some inclusions. First the fibers were felted around dowel rods. These were mounted on base and illuminated from the base.

Improvisationally pieced with many different techniques. Put many units together to make the whole quilt. Picked a calm colorway to stay focusd with the design. Worked spontaneously, applied design principles. Had a great deal of fun creating this. Longarm quilted by Bobbie Deletske. Original design

Mosaic technique learned in a workshop. Free motion machine quilted. Fused hand-dyed fabrics. This piece should evoke life’s passages. Some are in good times – some in difficult times. Often times there is more that one choice of path to follow…hence life’s journey.

Applique, machine quilted. This is an original design of scrolls based on a technique class with Cara Gulati. It is a color exercise in order to get “dimension” and “movement” within. Extensive machine quilting added to the movement. A fun quilt to make.
