Bear Paws – 23 1/2” x 32 1/2” Fiber Art 2015

Description

(Entry in the Face of Fiber in the Rockies 2015 (June 2015), presented by the Fiber Arts Council of Estes (FACE), specifically as an entry in the special Estes Park 100th Anniversary theme.)

I liked the idea of the traditional merging with the contemporary, using the traditional Bear Paw pieced blocks complimented by a raw-edge applique of a large golden bear, his paws hanging over the edge of the quilt.

Construction: Pieced blocks and raw-edge applique using commercial cotton fabric; polyester batting; cotton, polyester and monofilament threads; fabric inks.
