Detail of naturally dyed hand stitched quilt, created using Heidi Parkes' Vignettes pattern.

Happy Easter if you're celebrating friends!

Whatever you are doing today, I'm sending lots of empathy, compassion, strength and love your way.

Textile art created from naturally dyed scrap fabric and handwoven offcuts. Laid out on a floor that's similar in colour, making it somewhat camouflaged.

Rounding out February (almost!) piecing together this wall art quilt top, following the inspirational Vignettes pattern created by the talented @heidiparkes.bsky.social

Everything has been created from my naturally dyed scraps or leftover handwoven offcuts.

Vignettes Quilt top so far

Having fun working on my #vignettesquilt for the @heidiparkes.bsky.social quilt along. The strip on the right with the #crow is my response to the prompt for SPACE. I jumped ahead to the postmodern principles of art so I could add the #tardis for APPROPRIATION and “Dogs welcome” for TEXT. 😊

Sheer fabric stuffed with yarn to make a raised equal-armed cross

Prompt #3 for the @heidiparkes.bsky.social #vignettesquilt QAL is FORM. I took inspiration from Heidi and stuffed some sheer fabric with weaving yarn leftovers to make this 3D equal-armed cross.

I’m hosting a Quilt-Along in February, details at heidiparkes.com/blog
