Crown Jewels, 2006<br />

Susan Wittrup (Saskatoon, SK)<br />

Brocade, satin, silk, Japanese obi fabric, velvet, cotton, polyester, gold<br />

cord, beads; machine pieced and quilted, hand embellished. 26.5" x 41.5"<br />

I believe that we are nothing if we do not reflect and<br />

grow from our past to succeed today in order to create<br />

a strong tomorrow. Using the traditional imagery<br />

of crazy patch with scraps of fabric leftovers<br />

(Yesterday), along with the modern technique of<br />

fusing fabric (Today), I have put Crown Jewels<br />

together in a modular format (Tomorrow). My<br />

intent was to show that all of time must be incorporated<br />

into our work if it is to have strength.<br />
