Another piece inspired by the "A Song of Ice and Fire" series. The last scene at the end of |A Storm Of Swords| struck me so viscerally that I had to interpret it in fabric.

The white (weirwood) tree represents Catelyn, and the other trees cowering before her are of course, her foes. If you haven't read the books; uh... look at the pretty trees! :) More about it here: kitlangfiberart.blogspot.com/2012/03/finished.html

30 x 25 transfer painted/disperse dyed polysilks background, fused and quilted; trees hand dyed and commercial cottons

I've been reading the Game of Thrones series and my head has been filled with magic realism - I wanted to make something that reflected that world where supernatural creatures and supernatural happenings blend seamlessly with the real world.

30 x 25 transfer painted silks, with the exception of the tree that is hand dyed cotton from Vicki Welsh.

48 x 40, predominantly cotton, gold satin strips; using Rayna Gillman's technique.

This falls into my "fractured" series nicely although I haven't ascribed any deep meaning to it. ;)

A journal quilt using a new-to-me-technique - transfer paints/disperse dye.

Directions for the technique found at And Then We Set It On Fire (andthenwesetitonfire.blogspot.com/2011/11/here-we-go.html) my process at my own blog (kitlangfiberart.blogspot.com/2011/11/fern-sketch.html)

This one is the first of several ferns I'll be doing using this technique - this one wee - 9 x 12 inches.

Polyester fabric, transfer paints and disperse dyes, pastel dye crayons, watercolour dye crayons, fabric dye crayons, gold leaf pen, beads. Part of November's colour palette challenge for 3 Creative Studios

this quilt was a result of Generation Q Magazine's "Scrap Splat Challenge".

We were given 40 scraps, we had to use them all and we could only add solids.

I had two designs plotted out in my head, depending on what the scraps were. Once I saw them, (especially the monkey butt front and centre) I knew what I was going to do.
