Bebe printed a garage sale chair on burlap, stamped chickens and farm stencils and gessoed part of the burlap. She used whipped spackle to add texture to the chair and the flowers. The flowers are thread painted beautifully to add texture.
She cut up piece and tossed it, but was convinced to dig it out of the trash. (We've all done that!) It has a lot of potential and will end up being a great piece.
Judy's furniture was a bird's nest! She used some pieces from her magic bag of odds and ends to create the collage. The leaves are skeletons of real leaves.The piece is mounted on a canvas.
Judy also dug through her box for some other great pieces. This colorful printed batting piece in an iron on transfer she created. It was scanned to another fabric and quilted into this figure piece which was coated with molding paste and thread painted
These small canvases will be donated to an art event.
Mary research in contemporary chairs gave her the pieces she printed on to her hand dyed fabric. It is quilted with chairs and put on a canvas. She put sand on the edges to add texture.
Mary also showed a piece she created using Color Magnet and sequin waste.
Oriental cranes marching along a bargello background belongs to Michael. He is creating an installation in Sulphur for August with 6 Oriental pieces.
Wendy recreated the Name Mandala glen showed several for the Moon Challenge. Her word is PEACE, can you find it? She overlaid it on a canvas and created a gallery wrapped piece.
Renee's Park Bench was created from a class about 10 years ago. It is a wonderful piece that creates shadows in fabric giving the bench a depth seen in photos.Renee brought in construction paper circles and we practiced making folded flowers. It was a great way to introduce us to folding fabric into flowers for embellishing quilts.
Renee does a lot of Charity quilts and this is one of the latest set of squares she put together for Quilts of Valor.
