My latest finish, called Currents, is a wall hanging which is roughly 18" (tall) x 20" (wide). I made the quilt in a class - The Art of Bending Fabric -taught by Michelle Wilke. Michelle has made several quilts using this technique. Her quilt Rails is one of my favorites.
Al the fabric came out of my scrap bin and I really like the mix of solids and a few low volume fabrics. Assembling the quilt was like putting together a puzzle. The quilting is a mix of walking foot, in thread color to match the fabric, and hand quilting.
This kind of quilting is my favorite for smaller pieces. Dense machine quilting and a bit of hand quilting for texture.
I just love this piece you've made--Currents is so evocative--nice work hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteI really like the movement in the piece. It reminds me of a swishing pleated skirt.
