Modern Quilting Luke Haynes
Quilting is the art of patchwork and morea broader concept than patchwork. Quilting includes, in addition to patchwork, several other handicraft techniques - embroidery, applique, traditional stitches and lines. Finished works in this technique are called quilts, and the masters are called quilters. Luke Haynes from Seattle is just such a master - the creator of modern quilts.This quilt is one of Luke's self-portrait series.Excellent technique, rendering of light and shadow and elaboration of small details ultimately create a stunningly vivid and three-dimensional image, made entirely from scraps of different fabrics.Modern quilting techniques make it possibleto create a complete art object from separate pieces of fabric, which can be equally functional as a quilt or a decorative wall tapestry.
