Collage quilt finally finished from Susan Carlson’s class
 

Started in October 2018, a collage quilt of my cats, titled “Brothers”

Woozer!! I really like that. A collage quilt is definitely on my bucket list. May have to look for a class this year.

That's a great job! I can't even imagine trying to pick fabric colours for something like this.

You did an awesome job on those cats!!!

that is so great. they really do look real. you've really captured them very well.

Wow your did an amazing job, so very well done! Love it.

oooh, goodness! that looks amazing!

First of all, your cats collage is awesome!
I have been toying with the idea of taking Susan Carlson's Master Online Class, but the cost is pretty hefty. Did you take the Online class or were you lucky enough to take a class with her in person? and did you feel that the quality of the class matched the cost?. Without a doubt, Susan Carlson's work is amazing! I personally think that her fabric collages are a step above all the rest. I'd love to hear your feedback.
Again ... this cat collage is spectacular!

How Beautiful! You captured your kitties perfectly. Beautifully executed quilt.

That is gorgeous.

You nailed it!! Lol, those cats look real and came to life with fabric. Do you want to do another collage?

Impressive and inspirational! I have 6 kitties - I better get busy. : )

everything just beautifully great!

Your boys are so sweet looking and your quilt is wonderful, you captured who they are.

Love this!!

Oh my goodness! They're adorable in their black and white photo, but *outstanding* in that collage! I'm so amazed!

You did a great job on your cats.

outstanding, just amazingly beautiful

Really impressive!

Fabulous portrait of your kitties.<3

I am blown away by this quilt!

Very impressive....what are the dimensions of this piece and approximately how many hours went into making it?

Wow! That is beautiful work! You have such a way of making them look so real. On my bucket list to try, but looks so difficult. Kudos to you! Fantastic!

Lovely! I so want to take one of her classes. I saw her show at the New England Quilt Museum in October 2018 and was amazed by her work.

Amazing. That is on my to do list this year - hopefully my quilting group is going to organise a two day workshop for us all to take part.

Oh, you really did a great job, looks great.

Amazing work!

Incredible!

Hi Nita, Thank you so much! I took Susan’s class in person for 5 days. It was crazy expensive but a once in a lifetime experience and totally worth it. She gives so much attention to each student. Definitely recommend:)

Thanks all so much! To answer a couple of questions:

1. I’m not sure how many working hours went into this but it was a lot. I did this off and on for over a year
2. The process is addictive and a lot of fun
3. if you can take a Susan Carlson class, I highly recommend it! I signed up about 10 months in advance. She is very hands on for all her students
4. the size is approximately 45x36

That's fantastic!!!!
I love your kitties, too. They're precious!

Wow!! Stunning collage! Your cats are very handsome.
