Fiber Explore Napikn Challenge



The Challenge for August at my Fiber Exploration Group was to use the cocktail napkin as inspiration via color, theme, material or something else to create a piece of art for themselves.

Here is the inspiration napkin! 




Here is my journal covers from the post two days ago. 









This was from Suzi, she used 5 inch squares and added some hand stitches.  She is queen of the hand stitches!  Each one has an inspiration on the back.








This was from Barbara.  She used the shaving cream prints we had done in a workshop earlier this year.  She used paint and inks, stamps and screens.  






Bebe used a kaleidoscope program to create this mandala circle.   And also went with a stamping and painting on a background that was painted lutradur fused on to a bright green felt.




Yvonne is working on a block of the month pattern from a Paducah Quilt Show group.  Different artists create a block each month, the cat was the current block.  She took that cat to the sea shore!



She also found this amazing clown circus fabric in a Vintage Store in IL last week!  


Suzi also showed her Because Of Her piece dedicated to her brother an his late wife.  This is the farm her brother recently purchased.  While he was thinking about buying it, Suzi sent him a photo of their father in front of his barn on a tractor just like this.  

She hand dyed and created each piece of fabric.  He will certainly love this.

  1. That vintage clown fabric is very cool! It reminds me of the some vintage fabric I bought with hot air balloons.
