MACHINE ART BY PATSY THOMPSON

Continuing my focus on the work of the talented members of the Fiber Junkies......we all tripped over ourselves to get closer when Patsy Thompson unveiled her latest projects.

This is a beauty.....Pasty dyed the cotton sateen wholecloth background as well as the fabrics for the tulip motifs which are highlighted by her skillful machine quilting.

I love the way the braid sets off the center unit. Pasty markets her own instructional machine stitching/quilting DVD's that are superior quality. She covers everything you need to know to conquer this skill with detailed instructions, comprehensive visuals, and always with a calm reassuring manner.


She's a master at stitching feathers......and not just single feather units.....she outlines them with additional thread colors which makes them vibrate.

Detail - if you've been wanting to learn free-motion quilting or wish to improve your skill......bring Patsy into your home via her DVD's and start stitching.
