Thread Art »

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Materials

fabric, sewing machine, thread and help from Lola!! Great class!!

What was your inspiration?

I loved Lola's class. She does amazing work, she makes me think of Faith Ringgold. She was kind and shared a part of her life and that made me want to learn from her.

What are you most proud of?

Learning to quilt, which I'm still learning:)

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Go slow, listen to the videos, and don't be afraid to ask questions!!

I love the project. I could look at it for hours. I'm hoping to do thread art of my mother when she was 17. I hope I can get close to this portrait.
