Thread Painting
Deb Brockway is a quilt artist whose nature-inspired quilts have been juried into both quilt and art shows in several states, resulting in the sale of many of the quilts appearing there. Photos of her quilts have also appeared in two newspapers and a book: The New York Times, The Trenton Times, and 1000 Quilt Inspirations (Sider, 2015). Her educational and professional background is in science education and education research. She has no formal art training and once thought “I could never make a pictorial quilt.”
Achieve realistic (or fanciful) effects with thread on fabric or tulle much like those created with a paintbrush on canvas. Shading and fine detail can be created on fabric or on a photo transfer. Materials and preparation will be discussed. Thread painting techniques will be demonstrated and assistance provided as participants select, prepare, and thread paint a chosen design.
