Castle Shannon Public Library runs a fundraiser every year called the Tiny Art Show where community members create tiny pieces of art – some on provided canvases, and some not, and then these pieces are auctioned off at a community show. This was my first year participating and I grabbed two canvases.
The shape of the canvas inspired me to think of a tiny quilt on a bed. Using scrap material I made a tiny quilt and two matched pillows. This is by far my smallest quilt.
In addition, I also made a cyanotype – the canvas reacted very oddly to the solution (maybe something to do with the pH of the material? I honestly need to experiment with that.) The effect of some leaves and ribbon in the odd solution made a kind of ghostly effect.
Both pieces were successfully auctioned off, with the proceeds going to Castle Shannon Public Library.
