Procrastination

I know, I know. I said I was headed for the ironing board, but as I scrolled through my old posts I realized I had no photos of my quilts up. Here is what I found on the computer. Will have to dig out the CD's for more later. Most of these are samples for classes I have given.


Piece includes dimensional paint, Shivas, rusted fabrics, hand dyed fabrics and a fiber binding.

Gelatin plate prints, hand dyes and fiber binding.

Silk and cotton hand dyed, rusted and beaded.

Painted commercial fabric, hand dyed scrim and hand dyed silk carrier rods. Some beading.

Clutch made from a sample of velvet. Silk papers, painted misty fuse, stamped, and free motion quilting.


2007 Christmas cards. Silly me mailed all of them before getting a picture of the finished piece.

Just playing around. paper pieced, drafted by me. Machine appliqued.

Wood nymph. She was a gift for a friend battling cancer.

Amish nine patch. One of the few traditional quilts I've done. I had a pile of hand dyed rems lying around. It sounded like a good idea at the time. It really is straighter than the picture shows.

Autumn leaves. Hand painted using thickend dyes. Thread painted detail.



Two more clutches from the above mentioned cloth. It was a large piece.

Time flies

Where does all the time go? I have been busy, but that's no excuse for slacking off. The first 5 pictures are some of the things I've been busy creating. The first is discharged black kona.

220 thread count sateen using a modified low water immersion.

200 thread count cotton bound resist dye.

Another bound resist. Trying to decide if this one is finished, or if it needs another layer.


The following are some bundles I put together. I have a huge tote full of bits and pieces of these fabrics. It was overflowing, so decided to share the wealth. These plus many more are now up on my eBay store looking for new homes. Have a look.

Back to the ironing board and camera. I want to go shopping at Lowes today. I'm looking for new bound resist stuff.
