Day 26: Blanket
I’m so inspired by textile arts, so for this piece I wanted to depict the geometry and stitching of a quilt! And the autumn vibes came through in the colors serendipitously 🧡💛🩵

'More than a clever way to mix hobby with statistical rigor, data textiles have the potential to unlock entirely new disciplines within the data visualization field, she said.'

Made a zipper pouch from some scrap. I love this fabric! This'll go over to my booth this coming week! #handmade #sewing #textilearts
A brown striped zipper pouch is with a white and tan flower on it. The stripes are wavy, and the colors overlap. A top view of the same pouch with the zipper open.

Are any of you aware of organizations that make grants to 501c3 non-profits, specifically related to quilting or any kind of textile arts?

So far, I am only aware of the one from the American Quilt Study Group.

Are there others?

Any suggestions on where to buy #pes files for alternative/queer friendly stuff? I'd prefer to avoid Etsy since I keep getting suggestions for ones that celebrate the rapist-in-chief.

Wanna find silly, #geeky, #goth files for crafting without having to look at the weirdo

Just finished up the latest piece in my Sunbonnet Sue, Days of Rage embroidery series. I got so mad after seeing that post from the White House that I had to stab some fabric 1,000+ times. Hand stitching helps me work through my big feelings in a healthy way. 💙 #embroidery #fiberarts #textilearts
Hand embroidered image of a vintage lady wearing a dress and bonnet, carrying a protest sign that reads "America has no king." This is piece seven in my series, Sunbonnet Sue, Days of Rage. It is inspired by the 1930's Sunbonnet Sue Days of the Week tea towel designs.

#TextileArts tours are a passion. In Jaipur, India, it was a privilege to Kantha stitch with these lovely women. They choose and stitch along lines in a printed textile, with a running stitch and a LONG needle. It quickly secures layers of used or new textiles together. More photos below.

My parents' place in Arizona has proven itself to be the perfect climate/location for #dyeing with rust. For starters, I found a ton of rusty stuff in the yard! I also stopped at a local trading post to get more rusty things! Also unlike the PNW, my cloth dries really fast. #textilearts

"The swimmer finds peace." Fabric collage made from thrifted clothing.

I swim in the ocean every chance I get from June to the end of October. Out in the water, all the busy tangle of life on land falls away, and it's just all flow.

Fabric collage showing a woman swimming in deep blue water. Behind her, the land is a busy tangle of magenta and brownish green lines. A seabird, the same color as the swimmer's suit, flies aheadnof her, as if leading the way.

Lots of folks have asked - so I have a list on my website of sheep farmers / mills and wool brokers that sell 100% Canadian grown and milled wool and fibre products. (Dm me if you know of someone who should be on the list)

When once I started to #embroider #moss in 3D, I was surprised how much material and work it "eats". #embroidery #textileArts #SciArt #nature #biodiversity #Moos
I start with thick felt for building some 3D structures. The moss is stitched in French knot technique. The more I use colour shades and irregularity, the more it looks naturally. Finished moss in different green shades with some sporophytes. They are made with green and brown glass beads on extremely thin green wire.
