CINDY
WALTER'S
QUILT SHOW
Cindy Walter is the creator of the Snippets technique for "painting"
with fabric. A traditional quiltmaker, she had long wanted to learn
to paint with oils, but felt too intimidated to try. One night,
when she couldn't sleep, she realized she could use fabric "snippets"
as "dabs" of color to create pictures.
Snippets will work with virtually any artistic technique, from
impressionism to realism to abstract. Here are some of the spectacular
works Cindy has created with this technique. They are shown in Cindy's
books, Snippet Sensations: Fast, Fusible Fabric Art for Quilted
or Framed Projects (Krause Publications, 1996) and More
Snippet Sensations (Krause Publications, 2000), available in
the SewAndQuilt.com Shopping Center.
