I have worked closely with Ysabel on many of her Textile Arts and quilts. I believe this particular work is an inspiration in itself.

 

Surfer's Rule

The Spirit of Surfing has even taken over The World of Quilting. Student Ysabel Minnick, completed this project in the Summer of 2000. She used a fusible web technique to capture the moment. A fine detailed fabric intensified the cowabunga road out of the curl. See more of Ysabel's work in the Student Gallery.

Cranes

Inspired by Kumiko Sudo's book, Harmonies and Hurricanes, I fussy cut 100's of pieces to make this textile art, and then did several other projects using the same process.

Cranes

Detailing the cranes, I've been very inspired by the Thousand Crane legion. The story goes that if you make 1,000 origami cranes your wish will be granted.
