Suzie, love your stitching! Will this piece be included in the show? What conditions cause a dragon's tongue? I was always pulled to the power of a tornado. Never had one hit close to me, for which I am grateful! Saw lots of dirt devils.

Anyway a tongue is created when there are the conditions for tornado action and electricity in the air. Some tornado dust devils and add some flammable particles and there is a spectacular eruption. Here are the original stills. (And since this art piece is up for public views I did get permission from the photographer to make a work based on his work) http://blog.londonconnection.com/201...-contributors/ Now what are you up to creatively these days? |
Suzie:
Your work is just marvelous. I hope you'll keep posting some photos, and good luck with your show. Yes, things have slowed down somewhat on this thread, but things will pick up again. At least I hope they will. I haven't come up with any ideas as I haven't been able to do much sewing recently. I hope to soon and post some photos. If anyone has an idea for projects I hope they will post. I'm just getting into art quilting, so don't feel as though I can make suggestions yet. amh |
I found some lovely fabric that will be used for either sky or water ,havent made up my mind yet,,maybe both. lol.Love it when a plan comes together.

ok art quilters here is a question I have. I was given this box of absolutely gorgeous raw silk (nubbly) fat quarters all shades of pink, blush, burgundies.. 16 all in all. I have never worked with this stuff, no idea how to manage it in a sewing machine and totally think it needs to be in a wall hanging/wall art as well its SILK. not something to make a small throw for the cats to sit on. A slight sheen to it. oh so gorgeous. SO IDEAS ANYONE??

No piecing suggestions but I've seen silk quilts and the quilting shows up beautifully.

I live in Oklahoma City, Tornado Alley, and Moore, OK is just south of me. As you may remember we have had several devastating tornados in area. I have seen some spectacular cloud formations of various kinds, but I have never seen a "devils tongue", thank goodness. I love your quilt.
I have been working on a quilt with the theme Across the Universe, This is a photo of what came up with. |
Polly, I love your quilt!! Really original!

practice art quilts
Well I got inspired so I cleared off a space to work and started a series of small, 8 by 10, art quilts. I'm using a stiff interfacing as a base and gluing the fabrics on top. I'm planning on adding some more layers, maybe paint, definitely thread and who knows where I'll end up.
I'll post a picture later. Cindy |
