                                                          "Working Stiffs"
I made this 18" x 18" quilt with men's suit material as the background.  The calacas were cut from lightly rusted cotton.  The "clothes" and "shoes" were made from a men's tie and men's shirting material.  I added a few embellishments and the twisted yarn around the edge.  This will debut at Artistic Artifacts, Alexandria VA on October 22, 2011.

Made a quilt for a friend.  She owns an alpaca farm in Oregon and
sent me some fresh shavings.  I felted the fur onto a quilt to send
to her.  It's 22" x 17" about the size of a fat quarter.

Knee High to a Grasshopper,  36" wide 48" long.  This quilt was made for an exhibit put on by Dinner at Eight Artists and I just found out I got juried in!  
My quilt, along with about 38 others, will be part of a juried invitational exhibit at International Quilt Festival Long Beach, July 28-31, 2011.    I enjoyed the rusting process and laying out the design.  Now I'm waiting to enjoy seeing it in the whole exhibit.
