I took 3 classes (Hilde Morin - fig. 1, Lenore Crawford - fig. 2-3, and Esterita Austen - fig. 4-5) last year and helped teach one (FiberVoices workshop on creating a stamped veggie floral bouquet). Lenore taught two methods of composition, one working with pattern (poppies) and fabric confetti. I used her poppy pattern in my composition, Poppies and Puffs, fig. 2 and created my own composition (her class project was a forest of trees which on second thought would have looked better...couldn't resist playing) in fabric confetti (Pink Poppies, fig. 3). Esterita's class was called Sheer Portraits, using sheer in randomly cut pieces to create a portrait (see fig. 3). I later digitally manipulated the photo of the finished work (again just playing) and quilted it (see fig. 4).
