More of Mrs. F.G.'s Fibre Art

Here are a few more of Mrs. F.G.'s beautiful art pieces, mostly small interesting quilts, but a couple of other neat things.  Perhaps it will take your mind off the snow!

This is a paper-pieced hexagon, created mostly with fabrics Mrs. F.G. dyed herself.  The kitchen looks like a chemistry lab when she does that.  I love the long thin triangular shapes on this, only about a foot across, so each triangle is pretty small.

This was created based on a picture printed on fabric, and then painted with watercolour paint pencils, where the colour is set by heat.  Practicing a new technique.

I love the detailed quilting outlining the petals and leaves on this, the coloured thread matching the fabrics.  About 16 x 20".

This is a little fibre art quilt with multiple layers of fabric, made more interesting by cutting and slashing some of the fabric to create the rough edges and curves.  A few very small quilted squares and beading added on top.

And finally a 3-dimensional snowflake, just an extra little afternoon project.

A lake effect streamer parked itself overhead this morning and moved back and forth a bit, transforming our 1 cm. forecast into about 15 cm.  We were driving home and literally drove into the squall like driving into a wall of snow.  For the next two miles you could hardly see, the thickest snowfall I can remember.  Then we popped out the other side into sunshine!  At least it was light and fluffy so it wasn't hard to blow the drive and deck later on.  A good reminder of why the weather channel warns you not to drive in snow squalls!
