Forgotten title by Gillian Cooper |
I’m in shock – it’s only January and
I’ve completed two pieces of work already this year. Okay, the other one was a bit of cheat as I
had done most of the work last year, and this one is only 7x10in, but still...
SAQA (Studio Art Quilts Associates)
has a call out for pieces this size for a Trunk Show, to let people see the
full spectrum of the wonderful world of art quilting and all it
encompasses.
For this piece, I used some of the
printed fabric I have been making and it is basically a sample for a bigger
piece that is now underway. It is rather
time consuming as with only one screen, I can’t get many prints in one go
(three to be precise) before I have to clean it, let it dry, re-ink, let it dry
before printing again. It may be a while
before you see the large piece!
I sent it off last week to the
States for the Trunk Show and before that spent ages pondering the title, which
I promptly forgot and didn’t write down anywhere. I’m now spending some time setting up a
proper list of my artwork so I don’t do it again and so I don’t have to keep re-measuring
everything every time I send off details of my work... oh to be organised! Anyone got any good organisation ideas for
me?

Lovely piece for the Trunk Show. There was a discussion on the SAQA Yahoo site a while back about how people keep track of their pieces etc.
I like this piece for the Trunk Show.
I'm a italian quilter and Saqa member.
