THE QUILT PROJECT




A friend of mine commissioned me to print images of her daughter whom I grew up with onto fabric. These images would be woven into a quilt of her childhood. 

I was given many many photographs which I scanned and edited to be square and monochromatic. I transferred the images onto fabric with xerox litho. I created a silkscreen frame for the images and printed in three colors. I experimented with a variety of printing techniques for the photographs but xerox lithography is really wonderful for producing a range of tones.
