 About 
This surreal view of a giant seashell witnessed by the Woody comes with an amazing story. The idea and design were well under way when I made the decision to include a drawing of two palm trees done by my recently passed mother-in-law, Betty Fogg. Later to my great surprise, I found out that Betty and her new husband Fred left for their honeymoon almost 60 years ago in a Woody. Sometimes inspiration comes in unexpected ways. The shell symbolizes future home and family. Machine pieced.

Traditional Baby Blocks form a pyramid of candy with the shop's name rendered in type and calligraphy doing double duty as it also advertises the luscious hand dyes used to create the scene. Machine pieced and hand appliqued. Heavy trapunto suggests the hearts embossed on chocolate boxes.

Quilt: Dragonfly Moon Kimono…
Size: 48" x 48"…
Made and quilted by: Cathy Erickson
…
The intense blue to white background fabric was made by Jeanette Viviano. She made two types of hand dyed sateen fabrics for the background at the same time so that the blue hue of the two fabrics would match. The first was a white to dark blue fabric and the second was a medium blue to dark blue fabric. The moon fabric is a white-on-white fabric with a rich peach and yellow hand-dyed fabric under the white fabric. The leaves are a mixture of kimono silks and cotton hand-dyed fabrics that I have collected over the years from various people.

Inspirations: Dragonflies, water, and the moon

One great use for shibori can be found in the water. Another can be found in the planks of wood used in the ark, where the brown shibori was cut up and artistically pieced.
The border uses an ultra sateen blend that goes from golden brown to dark brown. It was cut into strips and the two dark edges were seamed together with the two light edges creating a beautiful glow.

 About 
An ultra sateen was used for the sky to give it an effect of a winter's day. The multicolor ultra sateen contains some green in the gray.
The road leading to the barns is a shibori and the bottom right field is an ultra sateen. The grayed-out background really sets the mood and bring the rest of the design forward.

 About 
This fairy tale quilt displays many of my fabric dyeing techniques which are actually marked on the image. The spinning wheel is crackled and grayed out, retaining portions of the colors of the sky. The castle is made using crackle, and several different wrinkle-crinkle fabrics are used for the roses to show texture and multi-dimension. The castle door is metallic.
