Selected Stories

Elizabeth Brandt's avatar Elizabeth Brandt Two-Dimensional

This piece is part of my Karma Series. Karma means "action" or "cause and effect." Everything we do, say, or even think leads to something else--for every cause, there's an effect. This describes the improvisational way I construct my quilts, without preliminary sketches or templates. As I add or remove each piece of fabric, it affects the other elements in unexpected ways. I slice, sew, cut and reconstruct until a composition evolves. The final piece can change drastically until the very last seam.
