A *Quilt Study*

 


*A quilt study with Paper, Paint and Cloth*  38" by 32"

I would like to do a new *paper, paint and cloth* quilt with a particular design I have in my mind. Because I don't know if it's going to work I have decided to do a *study* quilt.

To make my task more interesting I designed different blocks:






I had quite a few to choose from. Settle for the last two blocks. I needed to figure it out how to sew them together: find the perfect thread for piecing and for stitching in the ditch, the best machine needle, temperature of the iron, thin batting, which backing fabric, etc.

Even if you are a quilter that likes to work with only fabric you must have a practice piece, same as your final project to figure it out all these details. Well when it is a mixed media quilt you really have to take all these in consideration, specially if it's a new technique. I learned a lot!


I will work in my new quilt and will write about it here.

For now I must finish getting ready for my on-line classes at the Pennsylvania National Quilt Extravaganza.

I will be teaching *Instant Paper-Cloth* and *Criss Cross Paint and Cloth*  You can read more about HERE and you can see this VIDEO

This classes has NO kits so it's open to everybody wherever you live.

I hope you will join me so we can have fun doing ART together.

Thank you for stopping by.
