Quilting Arts Winter 2023 Print Edition

Description

Come along for a journey into the minds, studios, and styles of quilt artists like Denise Labadie who shares both her thoughts about being an art quilter–and how she got there–and the three favorite applique techniques she uses in her signature work. Margarita Korioth takes her Dye Transfer Sheets from the Fall issue to another level and explores silkscreening and creating a small quilt. Nanette S. Zeller provides expert assistance in working with stabilizers as part of our ongoing Out of the Toolbox series, Margaret Abramshe paints on grayscale fabric to create layered compositions, and Heidi Zielinski shares how she combines free-motion machine work with hand embroidery. A new series, From Art School to Art Quilt, features lessons by Lea McComas on designing with single-point perspective plus Valerie S. Goodwin explores the possibility of working with laser-cut scraps in her Light ‘N’ Lacey collages. Teresa Duryea Wong shares her insightful and popular lecture “Hello Modern Art, Meet Antique Quilts,” we visit Timna Tarr in her newly renovated home studio, Irish fiber artist Eileen McNulty share her work and inspiration, and Ana Buzzalino presents a beautiful technique in adding printed tissue paper to your art quilts. Other features include a touching and compelling story by Valerie C. White on a very special quilt she created, two incredible galleries of professional work from SAQA and Viewpoints, a gallery of our own readers’ work from the Quilt Art Reader Challenge, and more! We hope you enjoy this issue as we push the limits of fabric and thread.
