These are a few of the quilts designed from images taken by students on Mackinac Island on Sunday. Everyone was so different. I think the interesting thing for me was to see how others view images…

I asked the students to focus on a subject… take a lot of photos and represent that image, realistically or representatively in their quilts. Everyone achieved their goal….

We used a lot of different techniques to complete the quilts. Appliqué, machine illustration, ink illustration and using fabric as a paint pallet…..

To be honest, the days flew by, we had a lot of fun, it was hard work and we all learnt a lot.

We went to the local diner for dinner… the meals were ridiculously cheap, huge serves and really needed to be documented….
