Gallery, Quilts 26-30
Flora & Fungi (2004) 123cm x 123cm (48.5" x 48.5") A rendition of four (holiday)snapshots of flowers and mushrooms. The photos were converted into a patchwork pattern using the computer. Each patch is shaped differently, but the design makes it possible to sew them together in straight lines. Quilt detail. | |
PCN Logo (PKN Beeldmerk 2004) 85cm x 85cm (33.5" x 33.5") This quilt shows the logo of the Protestant Church in the Netherlands (PCN). The unification of three Protestant churches into the PCN happened on 1 May 2004. Quilt detail. | |
Checkerboard (Schaakbord 2003) 99cm x 81cm (39" x 32") Designed by using a 3D modeling computer program and tracing the resulting picture in EQ4 to be able to print templates for the pieces (all shaped slightly different). Quilt detail. | |
Spin-off (2003) 130cm x 130cm (51" x 51") This design derives from the tensided tablecloth. While making the tablecloth I discovered unexpected circular patterns which I transformed into five perfect circles, overlapping in the middle of this quilt. Each circle has its own theme; the basic colors for the circles are matched to the patterned fabrics used in the centres of the pentagons. Quilt detail. | |
Colored Blocks (Gekleurde blokken 2003) 47cm x 47cm (18.5" x 18.5") A small in-between project to experiment with colors. | |
