Today's Zoom Quilt is from a TQS favorite, Jeanie Sumrall-Ajero. Jeanie's quilt, Flights of Fancy, won 1st place minature at Road to California 2013. The quilt measures only 13" x 13" and was created with Kaleidoscope Kreator Software.
Artist statement: This quilt began as a way to teach myself digitizing. Little did I realize that one of the most challenging aspects of the digitizing process for me is selecting thread colors. My initial inclination to choose colors that matched the fabric being stitched on created a predictably boring result. It wasn’t until I chose thread colors that seemed to clash with the fabric beneath that the designs came to life with shimmering texture.
Jeanie is the creative force behind the Kaleidoscope Kreator software and also has a class here at TQS on another topic: Printing On Fabric.
