Another Great Day at Marcia's Studio

The day often begins with "show and tell". I brought some "confetti fabric" which I have been making recently. These are 1/4" squares butted together and sewn with a gold metallic zig zag.

They are sewn, not fused. I have been putting the finished squares together to make "fabric".

Beth brought a fabulous piece of Marimekko fabric from Finland.
I also brought some Miao embroideries from China.
I purchased these years ago at the so called "dirt market" in Beijing and plan to incorporate them in a jacket.

Pat Berardi has her jacket from my last jacket class almost finished. We all loved it.
Inspector Suki dropped by to inspect Beth's pattern.
It apparently required a little more intensive effort on her part.
My cow jacket begins to take shape.

Pat spent most of the day quilting this fabulous quilt on Marcia's longarm machine.

Beth added a silk lining to her jacket from the last class.

The cow jacket back is about finished.

The flowered band on the red strip is a beaded band from Solola Guatemala. It was intended to be part of a belt but will look wonderful here.
The sleeves begin to take shape.

And I start work on the front.
