beautiful work! Hope to see and hear more about this!

I used wool roving with a few strands of angelina (sp?) fiber and qulted it down. Tons of fun!

She is way out of the box creative in her perspective and if her style may not be to your taste, her teaching and techniques can help anyone become a better landscape quilt artist.
Give her work a look and see for yourself.

She is a fantastic quilter and lives in western MA. I would use her pattern as applique before she made into piecing!!

I also just got a notice that there's a live online seminar (aka, webinar) coming up titled Principles of Design in Arts and Crafts: Basic Skills for Every Artist with Lyric Kinard. http://www.interweavestore.com/princ...-crafts-ep7850 It's on July 18th, this coming Thursday.
I've taken classes from her and have her book, Art + Quilt. She's a great instructor, very personable, and really, really knows her stuff.
