As soon as the prompt of Sound was announced my mind went to sound waves. I love the repeat patterns and lines created by the variations and wanted to replicate them in fabric.

 

 

 

 

My work is a graphic representation of multiple waves all overlapping and probably creating a very discordant noise.

 

Process

  • Mistyfuse was fused onto a piece of hand painted fabric

  • Fabric was cut into 1/4″ strips

  •  Strips were laid onto a Goddess Sheet (teflon sheet) and then shapes were peeled off.

  •  Individual units were also created and overlaid

  •  Quilting of the background was done in 1/4″ lines with variegated Aurifil cotton and wave like quilting was done in a grey thread
