Digital Image Journal Quilt


This is one of my digital images printed on my preferred fabric (see earlier post) and quilted.  The arms and fingers are heavily stitched because the fabric wasn't taut enough without it and this aided in shrinking the area a bit so it feels firm -- not 'mushy'.

Its interesting to see a digital creation in fabric form.  The medium has an effect on the piece.  I'm still figuring out what I think about that, but I observe that it is different.

Looking at the piece, I'm thinking I could have quite a show, if I did a quilt version of each one of the digital images I've done over the last year!

    you could easily have a show. I want to see more of them. I love the female figure in art. Good stitching, it's hard to know what to stitch on flesh, don't want wrinkled look but need something. LeeAnna Paylor

    I like this and agree that a series could make a show! Did you do any thread work on the face? I can't see it in the photo. It has a bold, clean look. I doodle on my IPad frequently.

Visiting The Hague and Amsterdam (Netherlands), and Paris!

Fabric Basket - Pretty Easy

This basket was made in Jane Hall's half-day course at IQF 2014.  The greatest amount of time involved in making it--was cutting and sewing the strips together.  Otherwise, it went together easily and quickly (3 hours). These baskets are a great holiday gifting idea that you can match to family and friends' home decoration color schemes.  They're fun and useful besides.

Highjacked Blog Photo

My profile photo was highjacked ! For those of you who are blogging, be wary. There are some unscrupulous folks out there who may be using or about to use a photo(s) you've uploaded to an online photo-hosting site. At the time I created a blog, having a URL for a photo uploaded online was the only way to insert a photo in your profile or to create a custom header. There had been no problems for a long while. This morning, however, I did a Google image search for my name and found my photo linked to a totally different blog than my own! It is possible I didn't mark my file with the online photo-hosting site as private, but I didn't expect this to happen. I don't know whether marking it private would have actually averted the situation, but I'm not waiting to find out. I eliminated my membership to that online photo-hosting service today and caution anyone to be careful with uploading images to the internet . If you read the terms of agreement at many sites, you'...
