This year our quilt show is taking place with the Foothills Craft Guild rather than being a venue of the Dogwood Arts Festival. It begins next Friday and I invite any of you who live within driving distance to come see many fabulous quilts as well as wonderful crafts made by juried crafts men and women.This is one of my three entries in the quilt show. It began in a workshop taught by Dottie Moore which is posted here.
Across the River - 24"x 24"
detail - 6"x 6"There is much machine stitching to keep all the tiny bits of fabric in place as well as machine quilting. I also added a bit of paint and oil pastel work to high-light and blend elements.
The striped border fabric was purchased at a world village shop in Michigan. It's a cotton damask that was hand-dyed by a man in Africa. I cannot imagine a more perfect combination with my sun-printed piece and vignette scene.
I'll be at the show for a period of time each day. If you've read this and see me there, I'd very much like to meet you. I'll post about my other two entries later in the week.
