The Studio Archives April 2008 Blue Jazz a second wallhanging for the Vermont Jazz Center in Brattleboro VT

This piece was done with a stitch-resist technique, infusing color into the stitch lines before soaking the whole bundle in indigo blue. I wanted to make lengths of fabric to hang to the left and right of the above fabric, using the same technique but not so much color variation. I actually used the computer (!) to help figure out the design of the stitch resist on these two pieces. It was cool using the cut-and-paste capability of this magic machine to get an idea of what my design would look like when repeated! Below left is the drawing I did on the computer, and on the right is my package of my accordion-folded fabric before stitching. |
