no, i do have a ton of asian fabrics because i like them. then when some people saw the asain quilt i got a lot of orders for them.
the asian panels quilts are easy to do and i'm always amazed that people want to buy them.
i would say the majority of my work is contemporary abstract designs and i use ombre fabric or batiks to make them - think the breast cancer quilt and the optical illusion quilt.
then the next most popular designs are the asian quilts
and then i get quite a few orders for my collage work - i take images/photos and alter them in the computer. i send that file out to be printed onto fabric. when the panel comes back (typically about 2.5 feet by 4 feet or so) i paint on it, embellish, etc.
these orders have always been from private business that are looking for an artistic way to provide noise reduction.
they became popular because i can adhere the panels to a frame filled with acoustic foam and the recording studios in NY just latched onto the idea.
i think most people here wouldn't consider this work a quilt.
