Rust Study #1 by Cynthia St Charles
From the Rust Dyed Gallery
Size in inches: 52 x 32

Price: $3,000

This quilt was inspired by a growing collection of "rust dyed" fabrics that I wanted to showcase. I used hand dyed, monoprinted, shibori, and discharged fabrics to compliment the rust dyed fabrics in simple rectangular blocks made more interesting by slight waves in the piecing. Big stitch quilting and the application of rusty nails was done using hand dyed pearl cotton.
