Blue Green Line - Spirals, Stripes, Salamanders and Dots

  Now showing the Blue Green Line set of fat quarters hand dyed by yours truly.  Though the colorway is limited and the designs are simple, but the techniques were varied in creating this grouping.  I used mono-printing, stamping (with my own stamps that I designed), painted on thickened dye, dye paste and over-dyeing.   The designs are spirals, stripes, salamanders and dots.  Again I have used fat quarter sized pieces of 100% cotton fabric.  This is an easily managed size to work with, although larger pieces of other designs and colors are in my stash that I have also designed, you just need more room to spread out! Here are a couple of views.  Have a look, hope you like what you see.

What's In A Name?

In the Stairway 
   Well here is another small quilt recently finished, bound and sleeved.  It is not pieced but rather painted and then quilted by machine with hand embroidery enhanced into the rows of machine stitching using black embroidery floss.  Binding is black, corners are mitered.  Cotton batting is used with a plain white backing.

   Looking at it in a vertical versus horizontal orientation my desire to give it a different title is dependent upon that orientation - go figure.Pictured here with both titles you can see that it is a graphic design with bold color.  It is actually part of a series that I am working on, being the first in the series.  The rest of the series is only on paper at this time and will present at a later time before this year is out.  Enjoy!
