Thanks for sharing the information so patiently so far! I am also looking forward to the video. I have collected many colors of tulle for use in art quilts and am curious, do you prefer the white or do like the results you have had if you have tried other colors. I would think you only get one really perfect chance to set the tulle on top of the confetti so you better like it (seems like picking it up again would disturb the arrangement too much).

Those "pictures" are amazing! I especially like the dog picture. I've been throwing my small pieces of fabric away; now I have a reason to save them. Thank you!

I do understand how this is done and I'm not going to wait for the video, but it did open our eyes to a whole new way to quilt. This seems easy for the beginner too, no piecing just trace, chop, drop ( per say) and meander LOVE LOVE LOVE it.Thank you

I suppose what I really need to know what size of fabric would you chop up for a usable amount of confetti.


Lesley, I went online and checked out Noriko's technique for Confetti Quilts and it has a great video showing all the steps of this process and I think it will answer a lot of your questions about the process. :-D

I love your Confetti Quilts and checked out Noriko's technique online and I have to say I think this is just the things for all of us frustrated artist that can't draw a straight line. I've always wanted to paint but knew I was not good canidate for a paint brush and canvas. Sharing your new techique gives me hope that maybe still can create a picture from some of my photo's just sitting around. Thank you so much for sharing this technique with us. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
