Please savor this presentation of a partial view of one of these bins!

Abstract

Robin Fischer

Textiles nourish my soul & keep me wondering what I can do next to make it interesting. I enjoy making original art pieces & love using fabric that is unusual. My inspiration comes from my surroundings, especially our garden. 

The community of quilters is sharing & generous which also inspires me.
I enjoy the collaborative process 
as I think it stretches you as an artist. 


My piece is based on a photo by Judy Leslie.

Techniques: Hand dyed fabric, machine appliquéd and machine quilted. It is hand beaded with: Shiva Paintsticks,  thread embellished and foiling.
