Today I share with you a detail of this beautiful quilt by Sharon Braunagel. I saw this in the Legacies show this year, in the Lincoln Center of Fort Collins Colorado. Take a close look at her exquisite machine quilting in the background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sharon has used silk charmeuse<\/a><\/strong>, hand-dyed silk organza<\/a><\/strong>, cotton prints, alcohol ink, transparent paint, collage and applique to capture this blissful moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Balance”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artist Statement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Shhhh….Listen to the wind and the gurgling brook; Smell the rain and roses growing on the fence; Feel the silence of the natural world. Our planet will restore our hope and balance, if we only give it a chance.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you would like to experiment with the lustre and beauty of silk<\/a><\/strong>, see what we have in stock now<\/a><\/strong>. (Chiffon, gauze, habotai, etc.) We still have some Silk Radiance PFD<\/a><\/strong> in stock, and our bundles of Silk Sari Strips<\/a><\/strong> are so much fun! Silk Batting<\/a><\/strong> is the hidden layer of dreamy luxury for your most treasured quilt gifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The floral stripe at the top and bottom, is a Michael Miller design from the Botanical Garden<\/a><\/strong> collection, currently in stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve had a very busy year.
