I took Quilt University's Artists Revisted class. You select a painting, posterize and then trace the sections of color and translate into a quilt. The fisrt part is selecting the right color fabric. Then fusing the fabric and then threat painting to get the paintbrush effect and blend the colors. The you take the quilt top and quilt it with batting and backing. I finished just before the class finished. I had the most difficult time getting the fabric colors for the sky and 2/3 of the painting is sky. It is easy to over do the color and hard to get the soft impressionistic colors. A recent trip to Lewistown, MT through the heart of wheat country was also an inspiration. The thread was the Glide, polyester thread which I really liked.
