The Painted Quilt

At the moment I am reading "The Painted Quilt" by Linda and Laura Kemshall. I bought this book some time ago so its now time to use it. This is one of the exercises I have  tried  out in my sketch book. Using paper on the right I have tried to create the image on the left. This was good fun and although I did not have a lot of paper to hand I used whatever I could find.
This book covers a lot of different technics that I intend to use on my hand dyed fabrics. I would definitely recommend this book and also visit their web site to see Design Matters TV.

  1. Hey you did brilliantly with what you had to hand! I also find the Kemshalls pretty inspiring, but when I see the volume of work they seem to get through I also feel a bit inadequate!! I'm looking forward to seeing what you get up to next with those lovely dyed fabrics!
