As the Austin Art Quilt Group transforms, so changes the art we create. By working on the blocks independently and then re-grouping to compose the quilt, many conversations took place. These ongoing conversations, along with way too many buttons, led us to the creation of this group quilt.
Pieces are made of screen printed and hand dyed fabrics, machine pieced and fused, embellished, quilted and sandwiched. Along the way, blocks were cut, re-sized, embellished, and then satin stitched together.
