Each year, SAQA invites each of its members to create a small 12 x 12 inch piece of art and donate it to the annual SAQA Benefit Auction<\/a>.\u00a0 The auction has a dual purpose \u2013 to increase the recognition of quilts as art and quilters as artists, and to raise funds to support SAQA\u2019s exhibitions, publications, and education outreach activities.<\/p>\n

This is my entry for this year – ‘Fallen Beauty’<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My artist statement:\u00a0 Autumn is a magical time when the leaves explode into vibrant color, then float and drift to the ground.\u00a0\u00a0 When walking, I watch for colorful leaves on the sidewalk and capture their beauty with my camera.\u00a0 Original photo, digitally enhanced and printed on fabric.\u00a0 Leaf and background are free-motion quilted.\u00a0 The edges are faced.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I used a very similar process as I did for ‘Beauty on the Sidewalk’<\/a> earlier this month.\u00a0 I started with the photo below, taken last fall. I digitally enhanced the photo, printed it on fabric, fused the fabric to felt, and free-motion quilted it.\u00a0 Here is the original photo, and a view of the quilting from the back before I covered it with the final backing fabric.<\/p>\n

This is my sixth auction quilt!\u00a0\u00a0 Below are the five previous ones.\u00a0 Click on each of the images to see more information about how I made each one.<\/p>\n
