Stitching On The Back

Who looks at the back of art anyway?

 Even though it's against the wall and not so obvious, 

the lowly hanging sleeve is critical to installing Quilted Wall Art with ease.

 And you may even see unexpected beauty. 

When was the last time you looked at the back of a Quilted Art piece?

Brave Red Art | Client Comments

I love it when a client send me a photo of their Quilted Art

that has arrived.  It's even sweeter when they express

what the art means to them.  

"The art piece has arrived, Julie! So happy! As my own physical colors fade with age, I am more and more drawn to red accents, bravely railing against the fragile colors of aging! The quick quip, the twinkle in the eye, the wise words - all these are the brave and life giving accents that we senior citizens provide to those living-out-loud youngsters in our lives. (Thanks be to God for the inspiration He gives.)"

Experimenting With Cold Wax On Real Leaves

As I am exploring ways to add leaf shapes to my current composition,

 I am looking at ways to preserve the brown leaves I collected from the GOA weekend. 

A friend suggested trying rubbing cold wax that painters use to preserve the actual leaves.

 Here they are airing. 

Has anyone else tried this method on real leaves?
