I cut up my latest dendritic mono prints into four inch blocks and used them as a border to the smaller blocks previously. The creating of any art fabric is the most exciting part for me. This is my piece for the "Tradition with a Twist" challenge that my Cutting Edge Fiber Art Group is doing.
I feel the traditional part is the cutting of fabric into blocks and sewing them together like four patch or nine patch quilts, etc. The 'twist' is in using non-traditional hand-printed fabric
for the blocks to create an art quilt.
I machine and hand quilted the blocks and am adding some hand embroidery
here and there to further enhance the quilt.
