THE WORK OF JUDY SIMMONS

Our fiber group had an outing the other day to visit several exhibits. I want to share one of the pieces we saw, made by my friend Judy Simmons, who will be my guest instructor on my New England/Canada Quilting Cruise, Sept. 1-11, 2011. You'll love learning her amazing and varied techniques!!


This is titled 'Trees 1 - Winter'. She's incorporated many images that were photographed, manipulated in Photo Shop Elements and then printed on fabric.


I love the use vintage rice sack fabric which she obtained on a teaching trip to Japan.

Judy often uses faces in her work, both from scanned or photographs she's taken or ones her talented son draws......this image has been placed behind some screening material which adds so much interest.

You can learn more about our fun filled Fall cruise by clicking on the link at the top of this blog. Download the PDF brochure that contains the workshop descriptions, prices of the cruise which includes all the workshops and kits.......and then sign up!! You won't want to miss this one.
