This is the final post to season one blog! It has been an emotional journey writing this season.
All in Exhibits
Pointy Flap Bag
What was special about this bag was that my mom and I had a girl’s weekend with a blending board and every time I see a piece; I think of the fun we had making the mix together.
Blue Cotton Butterflies
For this square I used the surface design technique of nuno cotton quilt felting along with adorning gems (resist technique) in the background.
Darkened Butterflies
I would have given anything for my grandmother to have seen the color effect happening in this square.
Wings Flapping
Wings Flapping is by far the most complicated piece I have done to date.
Pink Silk Butterflies
My first square – Pink Silk Butterflies – was a high stakes piece. I only had one shot at making this square because I would not find another piece of china silk in time and Grandma would have truly loved this technique.
Grandma's Butterflies
I’m going to walk you through how I conceived the idea behind my award-winning piece Grandma’s Butterflies.
Tribute to a master fiberist, my grandma.
Today’s post is going to weave together my grandmother and mother’s connection to my first show with a few special memories of my grandmother included.
