2023 RECAP

This post is a look back at my quilting journey in 2023. Nothing new though I hope you will enjoy seeing my work again! I decided to take a break from sewing accessories (pouches, bags, …) and focus on more creative projects this year. As much as I like making these small items, it is time consuming and a bit repetitive to my taste … Cet article est un retour sur mes aventures patchwork en 2023. Rien de nouveau mais j’espère que vous apprécierez de revoir mon travail !Cette année, j’ai décidé de prendre une pause dans la couture d’accessoires… +

Inclination – A finished Quilt

Inclination is one of the small pieces I made especially for having some new work to show as part of ART-TEX exhibit. Inclination est un des petits formats que j’ai réalisés spécialement pour avoir quelques nouvelles pièces à montrer dans le cadre de l’exposition ART-TEX. It is based on one of the two designs I considered for my participation into the Pantone Quilt challenge earlier this year. I finally went for the design pictured left and created Interaction III for the challenge, while saving the other one for later. Il est basé sur un des deux designs que j’ai envisagés… +

October Recap

ART-TEX exhibit These past weeks, I was busy finishing new pieces for ART-TEX exhibit, open from October 28 until November 19 (all details in my previous post). Ces dernières semaines, j’ai été occupée à terminer quelques nouvelles pièces pour l’expo ART-TEX, ouverte du 28 octobre au 19 novembre (tous les détails dans mon article précédent). Unfortunately, my quilt Interaction III which I chose to use in the flyer was not back in time for the installation. Poor planning on my behalf … Anyway I replaced it by another recent piece, Girl Power. And as the gallery is more spacious than… +

September Inspiration

Here are a few pictures of textile works that particularly caught my eye at European Patchwork Meeting (France) last week. Excuse the poor colour rendering due to the artificial lighting … Voici quelques photos d’oeuvres textiles qui ont particulièrement attiré mon attention au Carrefour Européen du Patchwork la semaine dernière. Excusez le mauvais rendu des couleurs dû à l’éclairage artificiel … Beverly Smith When I went through the program, I have to say this exhibit was not in my priorities. Hopefully it was on display in the main venue and so I didn’t miss it. To me, this was definitely… +
