Nothing makes me happier than seeing my hand marbled fabrics turned into wonderful, brilliant, amazing creations. A couple of Summers ago I received a this photo from Joy Hegglund. She had taken the photo on Hornby Island, BC, Canada. Joy was excited to be taking a class from Kathy McNeil and she would be using this photo. Kathy was kind enough to recommend my hand marbled fabrics to her students. Joy wanted a range of grays dark to light and a selection of blacks. I started experimenting with a gradation of grays, dying them and then marbling. Joy had planned ahead, so I was able to get her hand marbled fabrics to her in plenty of time class her class.
Earlier this week another photo arrived of the completed quilt, Guardian Spirits. Congratulations are in order as Guardian Spirits has been accepted into International Quilt Festival, Houston 2015.
It takes my breath away. Â I love seeing the original photo and then Joy’s creation. Â Is it just me are do I see faces in some of the rocks?
Guardians?
OK, I had to show off my hand marbled fabric. Â I am in the middle of adding new color and updating existing colors to my web site. Â Take a look!
