Show and Tell

I decided it is time for some show and tell.... Some of these I still have and some are in private collections... 

My first art quilt... Fancy Dancer...



My Reservation inspired quilt... Go Past the Rocks & Turn at the Bush...  I used Rose Hughes techniques on this wall hanging. She liked it so much she put it in her book "Dream Landscapes - artful quilts with fast-piece applique" on page 82! http://www.rosehughes.com/Books.htm

I did some thread painting to make the bushes along the bottom in orange and blue and used dryer lint to embellish it. I also embellished the rocks using yarns and ribbons! I used some commercial fabric and my own hand dyed silk for the sunset!


This is a wall hanging in progress called Window Rock....
It will be heavily thread painted using Hollis Chatelaines machine techniques. I have lots of bold threads to use on this one! 



And my underwater scene quilt fused, painted, thread painted, pre-quilted and quilted wall hanging! Yet to be named! Maybe you can help.....


And you all have seen the latest quilt I am working on which I talked about in my previous posts! I also have several small wall hangings I am finishing up for class samples! Thanks for listening!
