I haven’t posted since the beginning of January, but I have been busy with a variety of quilting-related projects.\u00a0 Here’s one of them.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, I visited my sister Anne in Victoria BC, and we spent a couple of days working on our current collaborative project – ‘WATER: an Element’.<\/p>\n

We actually started working on this in April 2015<\/a>, but we were both busy with other projects, and didn’t get back to it until this month.<\/p>\n

Here’s our starting point, a sketch I drew last year.\u00a0 We’ve changed our minds about what fabrics we will use, but we’re still using our original design.\u00a0 The center piece is either a river or a waterfall – we haven’t decided yet.\u00a0 Anne had a long piece of hand-dyed chiffon that is perfect for that section.\u00a0 On one side we are going to piece and applique fabrics that represent calm waters – ponds, lakes, etc.\u00a0 On the other side will be fabrics representing active waters – oceans, waves, etc.\u00a0 We made a full-size freezer-paper pattern and cut it into the 3 sections.\u00a0 This will allow us to each work on sections alone, and know that they will fit together when finished.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Anne is working on the center section.\u00a0 She is going to manipulate the chiffon to make it dimensional and add tulle for foam, as well as other embellishments.\u00a0\u00a0 I have one of the side sections to start piecing and appliqueing.<\/p>\n

(If you’d like to read about our first collaborative project – ‘FIRE: an Element’ you can find the most recent post about it here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n
