Rock, Paper, Leaf

Jill Buckley brings new meaning to the word “embellishment” with her textile art pieces. Jill challenges herself frequently and steps outside the box of even contemporary embellishment techniques when she designs. She has actually used rocks and paper in her textile art pieces with great success. Her latest piece, entitled Reality Show, contains preserved maple leaves that have been thread painted and then attached to the surface of the quilt.

Jill’s work was recently published in an article in The Canadian Quilter, the newsletter of the Canadian Quilters’ Association. You can visit with Jill at her blog, The Quilt Rat.
