Other pages of the book cover rust printing, overdyeing, resists, discharging-- this is where the obsession comes in. When the techniques are layered, you are making what Jane Dunnewold coined "Complex Cloth" in her book of the same name. Jane has another book coming out in June- "Art Cloth". Ask me if I'm on the waiting list . . . .
I've challenged myself in this exhibit to use cloth/fiber in the majority of the signage/display items. Ive had my test kitchen (same room I used to cook in) working on the "will this work on cotton?" and "will this show up well enough for a sign" issues.
Exhibit debuts at Minnesota Quilt Show and conference at the St. Cloud Civic Center in St. Cloud, MN June 17-19, 2010. Stop by if you're in the area!
