Lecture Title: Award Winning Techniques for Fusing Fabrics

Lenore Crawford's fabric art combine her love of France, their architecture, and flower gardens along with her passion for color and realism. Their texture and warmth achieved from the fabric itself along with fabric painting give the art an impressionistic feeling that only this medium can produce. She has won several prizes for her art and continues to develop and grow her medium and style in new and beautiful ways.

In this lecture Lenore will talk about her own interpretation of fusing and fabric painting techniques she now uses to create art quilts with depth and color from photographs she has taken in her travels. She will tell how she creates a piece from beginning to end and gives secrets she has learned on how to make your design a winner. She has won prizes with this new style of art quilting such as the Best Wall Quilt at the 2007 AQS Nashville Show and this year Moda Best Wall Quilt in Paducah for Port of Cassis.
