The ruminations of an artist on art & life...art quilts, beading, knitting, drawing, painting, printmaking, bookmaking are all my passions, I love to explore creating....

Red Button Mini-quilt



I was playing around with layering and slashing fabrics (I want to make a jacket for myself using this technique), and created this small (8.5" x 11") mini quilt, titled RED BUTTONS. After I layered, slashed, quilted, and washed the fabrics, the piece called out for some of my button stash--so I embellished it with buttons and beads. If you look close at the detail photo you should see some pink sparkly beads down in the triangle shaped slashes.
