Collage + Cloth = Quilt

Earlier this year I had a chance to sit in on one of Judi Warren Blaydon’s workshops while I was in the process of editing her new book Collage + Cloth = Quilt. The book (and her workshop) features a unique way for you to use your own photos to create a collage which is then translated into fabric. The book is just luscious to look at, and the process is clearly explained with lots of photos. And there is a fabulous gallery showing original collages and the resulting quilts.

In the workshop, students start out with photos supplied by Judi (so they don’t feel attached to them) and then move on to working with their own photos. Below are a few shots from the workshop where students are working with  Judi’s photos.

Here are a few photos of quilts from the book…

    That is something I would like to try and work with art pieces.
    Looks like a good book.

    How smart Judi gives them a photo to work with they are not attached to, so they can be free to let creativity flow. Looks like a great workshop, you were lucky to be able to attend.
