Wendy Butler Berns

Name of Quilt:

Tangerine Triangle Tango

Size of Quilt:

30” X 30” Quilt

Materials:

Commercial cotton fabrics, rayon and trilobal polyester threads

Techniques:

My Picture Image Machine Appliqué process. Machine appliquéd, extensive thread embellishing, and then machine quilted on a home sewing machine

Design Inspiration:

Inspired by Libby Lehman's quilt designs as she includes lots of triangles and thread play. I played and played with ideas for my piece for the Inspired by Libby Lehman Invitational. I love all kinds of threads- having gotten my first taste of them in a class long ago with Libby. Finally, to jump-start my design, I chose the triangle shape and the "square in a square" layout. Highlighting my own style, I used my signature 3-D process of creating a quilted whole cloth background, embellishing it with my machine appliqué for the quilted shapes and lots of sparkly bobbin drawing. Inspired by Libby Invitational.

CHEERS LIBBY.... HERE'S TO YOU!!!
