47. "Matrix IV: All Buttoned Up" Karen Fischer Tucson, Arizona |
| Machine pieced, quilted; fused & machine appliquéd; buttons, commercial cottons, wool batting. |
| My "Matrix" quilts are based on a simple mathematical formula: columns of background plus rows of foreground create areas of interacting color and value. The first Matrix had twenty-six columns and rows - 676 2 1/2" squares. Another had half-inch squares with hand-made paper beads for the centers; a third was floated against a pieced background. Each quilt explores scale, color arrangement, and finishing techniques. I plan at least three more, and I continue to have fun with these very formal color explorations. |
