About Me
- artquiltseh
- I was fortunate to have a mother that let me use her sewing machine at a young age. 14 years old,I made my own clothes.I am self taught. I started quilting 20 years ago. I was never comfortable following a pattern or rules. Since we lived in Spain, the selection of nice cottons were hard to find,so the need for making my own cloth came up. I started experimenting with textile paint on white cotton. It turned out that it was so much fun;it gave me a whole new freedom. Finding out how to make my own cloth inspired me to make art quilts. At about the same time I found out how to make curvy lines successfully. And it is still the colors and shades in the cloth I make,that inspires me.But also observing the nature and life around me.

Kjære Elin!!!!
ReplyDeleteJeg skulle forlengst ha skrevet på bloggen din, men det går visst tregt.........Tar det på norsk, så det blir riktig!!!
Jeg har jo sett utviklinga di i quiltekunsten helt siden vi møttes i 1997. Allerede da var du en kløpper med symaskin, farger, motiver og det hele. Da var det vel mere vanslig quilt du drev på med. Men dog så vakkert!
Det jeg ser nå er KUNST av ypperste klasse. Da jeg så dine nyeste arbeider, må jeg bare si at jeg ble helt fra meg av beundring!!! Det var så mange flott bilder, jeg velger likevel å skrive kommentar på dette her, du vet vi prata om assosasjoner til Gran Canaria, farger, hav og surfing!! Stå på Elin, dette kan du virkelig!!!
Du har ei framtid som qultekunstner, definitivt!!!!
