Abstract 4x6 Textile Art

This is a 4x6'er I made last night using some of the lutrador and masa paper I altered with paints, dyes and batiking. It looks much richer in person - textiles and art lose so much of their soul in photography. This little piece is on the way to the gallery in Maine. People seem to like these miniatures there.

I've still been working on display samples to bring to the quilt shop where I'm going to conduct a class or two for beginner art quilters & sewers. The focus will be on how to let the fabric do the talking and using your sense of color to create an abstract quilt. I finished this up last night and believe I will bring it to the shop for class advertisement. Nothing about this is going to win any awards but I still like it anyway.

Tomorrow evening is our second art quilt group meeting. I would describe the first meeting as successful and we were thrilled with the fact that 2 men joined us! I came home and tried to interest my husband person but the hint just kind of flew right up over his head and out the window....guess working with fabric isn't his passion......
