The Blue Pitcher
12" x 12"
Mary Vinovskis
Ann Arbor, MI


From Mary:  This "The Blue Pitcher" (12" x 12").  Here I was trying for a painterly effect. The inspiration was a photo I took.  I was able to use the small trimmings from a different fusing project to create "paint strokes" on the pieces of fruit.

From Mary:  This quilt incorporates several techniques and ideas from classes I have taken.  The backgraound is painted with fabric paint.  The foreground elements are collaged from shapes cut from cotton and polyester fabrics, bits of painted tissue paper, and hand dyed silk yarn.

Mary's quilt "Architectural Abstract" (30" x 36"), was made in response to a challenge to use architecture as a theme and was inspired by Frank Gehry's buildings with their dramatic curving roofs and walls.
