Fabric Collage with the Girls

I had long admired from afar the collage works of some very familiar artists who are working and publishing today: Laura Heine, Susan Carlson, Joan Colvin, Dale Fleming, Ruth McDowell and David Taylor, to name just a few.

More than one of my small Fibre Arts group had taken a workshop along these lines so we decided to "Wing It' with our own compositions/patterns. After one afternoon gathering to make sure we were all on the same design page, we had our day at the quilt shop, Creative Sisters in Kitchener, where we rent their classroom work space.
What could be better? Lots of space, light and conveniences and if you need fabric?...it's ten feet thru the doorway.
Just a few finished and some will be a long time completing their work but here's the results of about 6 hours of HARD WORK. At times it was so quiet..........😊

I grouped the progression of each member's piece. Some seems to hardly change and other flow to a colourful completion. Some day in the future, I'll revisit these in their finished and mounted form Enjoy!
