"Denim Confetti" fabric mosaic, 14" x 5.5", made by Pam Geisel, April 2009
I made fabric pieces that I call fabric mosaics where I take small pieces of fabric, arrange them on a piece of fabric stabilizer, cover them with a piece of tulle (fine netting), then quilt the pieces down. I usually make abstract pieces but have done some representational art and I usually frame them but have sometimes pieced them into a larger art quilt.
"Denim Confetti" is a triptych (three pieces hanging together) made with blues and yellows. The blue thread is placed under the tulle and not stitches. The quilting is done with yellow thread.

"Woven Confetti" is made from some of the pieces trimmed off of "Denim Confetti" and "Pink Lemonade" that were woven together then covered with tulle and quilted. The sparkly blue thread is paced under the tulle and it's quilted with pink thread.
