I'm happy to see so many 'nature' quilts here this time ... my favorite subject. Surrounded by forest, it was natural for me to seek my inspiration outside my front door. My oak was made from tiny snippits of fabrics, threads and dyed cheesecloth bonded to Tyvek and heated to give it its 3-dimensional structure.
These two years have been an exciting learning experience for me. I wouldn't have missed it for anything!!! I will miss those of you who are leaving, but am looking forward to getting to know the new gals!!!
Very cool textures! Nice work.
ReplyDeleteNature is my favorite thing too. Love the dimensional tree.
ReplyDeleteFantastic, Meg. You did an awesome job of replicating oak bark with fabric and thread!
ReplyDeleteA tiny snippet of a glimpse of this piece and I knew that it was yours!!! Love it and the technique is brilliant!!! Bonding to tyvek and then heating- totally brilliant!!
ReplyDeleteHappy 2012 to you dear meg!!
