Fiber Art Day 2018

We hope to see everyone at the Fiber Art Day event on  Saturday, May 5th.   This is the 3rd year for this event...and it has consistently been well-attended and SO MUCH FUN! All of the Quiet Corner Art Quilt group will be there, either helping out, vending, playing music or just enjoying the event.  Hope you can make it!

Our own Cathey LaBonte and Hope Barton will have their pieces on display in the Local Color #3 "Inspired by Science" exhibit running from May 5th to July 8th!

Surface Design Swap Challenge

This month we each brought in a fat quarter of fabric on which we had done some surface design technique(s). We put each fat quarter into its own envelope and then we each picked a sealed envelope. Our challenge...we have to make an art quilt using all or some of the fabric we chose by our next meeting.  We'll post the results after the June meeting.  Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with...

Hope got this piece, made by Joan.  It's a folded clamp-resist technique, 

known as Itajme Shibori, on cotton.

Marcia got this ice dyed cotton piece done by Hope.

Cathey got this ice dyed mandala piece made by Pat.

Pat's piece is cotton that was ice dyed, and then over-stamped by Cathey.
