Today I cut up my completely quilted and bound quilt "Red Fence". I didn't get much further on it so you will have to wait to see any pictures. I do have pictures of the work that the students are doing in class.
Karen's work. At top right are photocopies of the quilt she wants to change.
This is one of Viviana's pieces. A lot of our painting was done using the type of "spatula" on the right. I think these are the tool used to tape wallboard together.
Elizabeth Busch's demo piece laid out on a table un-sewn. The already quilted piece is at top right.
Beth's work. Students who haven't taken Elizabeth Busch's class before were encouraged to make a color chart of the ten colors of paint concentrate we are using (upper left).
This is a very large piece that Beth did. (Maybe 40 x 32)
Nandine's work. The two very light pieces are actually the backs which we all liked better than the fronts.
Nadine's original quilt on top, photo copies below, possibilities at bottom.
Karen's work. This shows our individual pots of paint, a mixture of color concentrate and print paste (black lid with orange dot). These are ProChem products.
Viviana's work. Across the top photocopies of the quilt she wants to change.
This is a beautiful piece done by Viviana. The white lines are where she put masking tape before doing any painting.
Carol's work. Unfortunately Carol missed two days of class due to illness.
Andrea's work. At top right are photocopies of the quilts she wants to change.
Another piece that Elizabeth is working on changing.
Elizabeth's demo piece using a different painting technique the mountains are made by masking with a torn piece of manila folder.
Today we started cutting things up and sewing. More pictures tomorrow.
After class we went out together to a wonderful Greek restaurant "Fairouz" on Midway Dr. I had a fabulous lamb dish and had to stop eating halfway it was so filling. I'm going to have the leftovers for breakfast. Don't forget to change your clock one hour ahead.
