Chance Designs Crazy Quilt
$250

Silks on cotton base
Dyed and printed with chance techniques: sun-dying, monoprinting, dip-dying, rubbings, transfer prints, hand and machine stitched, tied.

I have been observing how much chance plays in creative design, due both to planned and unexpected fabric painting, dying, and printing techniques, as well as over-printing one technique over the other. Combining the results of these experimental techniques to create the small quilt was challenging and exciting.
