The group blog of four quiltmakers and textile artists scattered around the world in 4 countries and across three continents.
Our aim is to create a small quilt every three months.
The theme is chosen by the members in turn.
Our website is: www.12bythedozen.weebly.com
Just when you think you have people pigeon-holed they send all your preconceptions out the window. Very abstract, Helena. Makes me think of an aerial photograph. Beautiful piece of fabric - brave you for ice-dyeing it! Hilary
A contour map, yes, but I can also see that the quilting suggests a floral theme, no? Love the way you use salvaged table linens, etc., for some of your backgrounds.
It almost belongs in Chris Hadfield's new book: You Are Here: Around the World in 92 Minutes. You really are good with how you intuitively quilt and this is another great example.
so beautiful and so different from your present style. i just love it - gorgeous, textured and so aesthetically pleasing. a great start for a potential new series

What a gift to work with. Love the colours and I agree with Hilary it has the look of an aerial shot.
ReplyDeleteFascinating texture, and very successful ice dyeing. A lovely piece I fell like I want to hold and caress.

I like the texture, looks like it tapestry.
ReplyDeleteSuch a delicate look and feel as a result of your beautiful quilting. My island paradise!

I like both the texture and the colour. Reminds me of contour lines too
ReplyDeleteI've never seen this intensity of colour from ice dyeing before, love the colour contrasts.
