Hello ,
Thank you.Glad you like them. It takes me about four to six months to make one of them.
I paint my own fabric and make some of the beads from polymer clay.
I love making them and since they are never washed I can use a variety of fabrics and beads etc. that can't be used on traditional quilts. I can also use many techniqes to add texture to the surface of the quilt like free motion stiching for example.
When I first started making quilts I made traditional designs. Then I tried paper pieceing and made miniature quilts.
One day I was wathcing tv and saw Natalie Sewell on a sewing show and from that moment on I knew I wanted to make landscape quilts. So I have been making them for about 10 years now.
Again thank you
Barb
