Show and Tell
Pat Nelson shared a work-in-progress. She was asking for feedback on different quilting possibilities. |
"Garden Pat," also by Pat Nelson, features dense quilting. She's considering if she ought to do something similar with her new quilt. |
Pat Gillings used a technique of painting and discharge on white cotton velveteen taught by Angie Hughes. Angie has a tutorial describing this technique on Etsy. Pat also used embroidery techniques by Chris Richards for the dragonflies, and added foil applied over sequin waste (punchanella) for a little bling. |
This yet unnamed quilt by Joan Dyer is the fourth quilt using her own method of stitchery. Joan created the quilt in separate panels which were later sewn together. |
Maria Billings shared her "Walt Whitman" and "Leaves of Grass" quilts. She also shared the idea of wind chime quilts, something that could be done as a group effort. You can see what she's talking about in a photo on her blog. |
Kate Grant's mosaic horse was the first mosaic quilt of her series. She used Wonder Under to attach the 'tiles,' covered it with a layer of tulle, and quilted using a mosaic pattern. |
Ginny Lee shared a collection of fabrics that she dyed during a Frieda Anderson class at PIQF. |
