I have an idea for the Art Quilt Australia exhibition opportunity (see call for entry details below). My idea involves stitched resist karamatsu shibori. You can download my Karamatsu–Japanese Larch Stitch Resist Tutorial from my Tutorials page.
In 2013 Art Quilt Australia will be a curated exhibition of innovative, new contemporary art quilts to celebrate the centenary of the naming of the nation’s capital city as Canberra. Works will be selected that are inspired by, or reflect on ideas of people, place and nation.With the definition of a quilt as “a stitched layered textile”, the exhibition is open to all artists across Australia. It will be curated by Valerie Kirk, Head of Textiles at the ANU School of Art and be held at Craft ACT Design Gallery in Canberra from 31 October to 14 December 2013. Entry is open to full members of Ozquilt Network Inc and all Australian artists. Large quilts are preferred but must not measure more than 2 metres in either direction. The closing date for entries is 19 July 2013.
