TIDE POOLS - TIDE PULLS
40” X 40”

I began this quilt with an interest in working a piece in squares and the patterns of each individual square. I printed textures and patterns in shades of blue with black accents, mixing sheer fabrics (for ethereal, watercolor-like appearance) with bold contrasts on opaque muslin. I loved the soft palette of blues.

Once I began to assemble the squares, I became interested in the overall patterns and contrasts. I felt pushes and pulls, like water in a tide pool. I finished out the surface design with stencils over multi-block areas.

Hand printed (monotypes and relief prints) with acrylic paint on sheer fabrics and muslin, collaged and stitch construction, with machine stitched details. Finishing: bound fabric-backed. The back has a hanging pocket and a rod, for traditional hanging tapestry presentation. All collaging is with archival matte acrylic medium, which is also used over the surface.
