Sticky Fingers: Glued Collage
Plenty of Time to Join
|
Although the current "Sticky Fingers" online class just started (on November 30th,) there's still plenty of time for you to participate. That's because this two lesson class is short and the technique is easy. Please join us!
I really enjoy working with glued collage, because it's extremely fast and fun! Once the design is composed, there's no need to quilt it, add a binding, etc. Plus, it's possible to work with tiny bits of fabric which are too small to easily sew.
Cruciform #2, above, is an example of the technique. I especially love the painted background, a technique that's included in the class lessons.
Awesome student results

"Second Look" Article
in Art Quilting Studio

An article about two quilts that relate to one another. That was the assignment when I was asked to write for Art Quilting Studio magazine. I immediately knew which two quilts to feature, since one had inspired the other. Can you see it?
Ripening, 2008
Rhapsody in Blue Berries, 2009
At one point, when making "Ripening," the branches were bare. Even though the colorful berries were not yet present, I thought the white twigs were very striking against the dark blue. I knew I'd want to work with that idea in the future and it became the launching pad for "Rhapsody in Blue Berries."

An Award! |
 I was delighted when my quilt, "Crotons," won Best Use of Color at World Quilt Show - Florida!
I do love learning about and using color. I think it makes such a difference. If you want to enhance your color skills, you may be interested in my free articles on the subject. Or my ebook, which can be downloaded. |
