Amethyst - framed<br />
Later I decided to use traditional<br />
quilt patterns made with rubbings<br />
to make framed art pieces.<br />
I assembled the squares, added<br />
Borders <strong>and</strong> then h<strong>and</strong> quilted them.<br />
I sewed an<strong>other</strong> piece of fabric on<br />
Three sides to the front to make a<br />
sort of pillow case. A piece of acid<br />
free foam core board was slipped<br />
inside <strong>and</strong> the fourth side was<br />
stitched closed by h<strong>and</strong>.<br />
I framed these with metal frames<br />
that kept the glass separated<br />
from the art work.<br />
I did a series of these <strong>and</strong> had a show<br />
of them at the Point of View Gallery,<br />
Williamsville, NY. 1984
