Studio Progress 10/26

Alright, so this is super late, but I figured I'd just post it anyway. The tasks I've been devoting my time to lately include: acquiring fabric, sorting fabric, getting more familiar with my sewing machine, and making my prototype. Here's my fabric stash so far.


I decided that working with color gradients in my art quilts was one technique I wanted to use, so I figured I would base my prototype on this. For my prototype, I wanted to make a mini-quilt, so I could become more familiar with the various steps involved in actually putting together a large one. Below is my miniature "quilt sandwich" of the top layer, batting, and backing before I actually quilted it.

Here it is again after being quilted. I decided to quilt it in a way that I hoped would emphasize the geometric lines already in play.

And the back...
