| Watching the Inspired to Quilt Expo on my laptop while working in the studio |
I have been watching the Inspired to Quilt Expo online the last couple of days while working in the studio on my laptop. 9 of the top quilters in the industry are interviewed and give a mini lesson over a 3 day period. Ya gotta love today's technology. I was working with thickened dyes so I felt pretty safe having my laptop on my work surface.
I am continuing to add layers to my neutrals on silk. Some have been steamed 2 times and are waiting for their 3rd steaming. Lots of very subtle layers building upon each other. The silk is still stiff in the photos below because of all the layers of alginate print paste. They will soften up and become "silky" again after steaming and rinsing. I am thinking of adding stitch to these when I am finished adding layers.
