She could see the possibilities (8†x 10â€)
I’m participating in the Sew,Mama,Sew! May Giveaway Day. You could be the lucky recipient of one of these two art quilts.
She let her inner artist explore (6†x 10â€)
Each art quilt started as a painting that was scanned and printed onto cotton fabric. The prints were then embellished with thread doodling and buttons.
I love to thread doodle (free motion quilting) but my stitching is rarely perfect so I usually cover the stitching with the quilt backing as I did for She let her inner artist explore. However, lately I’ve taken a more ‘perfectly imperfect’ view of my quilts and let the stitching show. For ‘She could see the possibilities’ the stitches are visible on the back – it’s not perfect but I am learning and part of learning is embracing mistakes – even is those mistakes are a bit of messy stitching on the back of my quilt.
Leave a comment by midnight Alaska time on May 25th and I’ll randomly select 2 winner (one for each quilt). I’d love hear about the skills you are learning or perfecting.
these are awesome! you are very talented. thanks for sharing them.
these quilts are gorgeous! i want to go read some of your other posts now!
I’d love to hang her over my sewing machine. I’m sure she’d give me some inspiration. I’ve improved my French seams this spring.
I love your freedom of expression on great ideas. Lately, I’ve been learning to cook. Photography is currently my main artistic exploration. I would love to display one of your quilts in my home!
oh my gosh that is so adorable- love it

Your two pieces are amazing- truly just stunning! I would love to try my hand at some more free-form quilting. You are a very inspiring artist! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

i’m trying to learn to free motion quilt. it’s become a running joke in my guild, the only was i can do it is if i “quilt the crap out of it”, i need to learn to leave space!
