Art Vests and Jackets


My "Day is Dawning" Vest was modeled at The International Fashion Show at Quilt Expo at Den Hagg, Netherlands, April-May 2004. Two photos below, provided by my dear cyber friend Adri de Vries of the Netherlands, were taken during the fashion show. It was one of a few of the garments shown by US designers. Hand dyed, discharged, painted fabric with commercial black African fabric, curved pieced, free motion quilted with metallic thread, wool batting, hand dyed Bemberg lining.

DENIM GLITZ JACKET
I discharged dark blue stretch denim, then overdyed to create a marvelously rich mix of blue, burgundy and red. I stamped button motifs using disperse dyes onto poly fabric. To add glitz I cover with netting various materials including satins, lame, ribbons, glitter, paint, and glitzy papers. Free motion quilts, binding is constructed with my hand dyed cotton.
