There is Liberated Quilting as in piecing, a la Gwen Marston, and there is liberated quilting as in the quilting itself. I do both. Being unable to sew in a straight line, I am a firm believer in the liberated style!Clarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09344963200919601488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-2152181582524458642011-11-14T07:02:11.073-06:002011-11-14T07:02:11.073-06:00As a member of the Liberated Quilting blogring (st...As a member of the Liberated Quilting blogring (started by Tonya Riccuci and Clare Worthy), the Liberated Quilting message boards, and with my own Liberated Quilting Challenge to make and donate quilts for AAQI...the zebra quilt I made that Julie bought for you..I do have to say..YES! We LOVE free form quilting and while Gwen Matston named it..we went on to claim our affiliation with utmost devotion and fervor!!!! <br /><br />We have a lot of pattern burning members of the Liberated Front and support things like Tonya Riccuci's Word Play technique of free form piecing of words..all wonky and off kilter. But mostly we love anything that showcases freedom from the quilt police and great crazy fun!!! <br /><br />Gwen Marston and Freddy Moran pretty much nailed liberated quilting with bright colors of the modern craze..so if you have those latest books..that's our 'new' Liberated Quilting passion.<br /><br /> I couldn't believe none of your commenters mentioned the absolute crazy rage of this form of quilting. Guess we need to come out of the box and color outside of the lines even more visibly ;) Julie Sefton is actualy one of our card carrying, pattern and template burning members..love her and her quilts!<br /><br />I have always seen you as your own kind of liberated quilter..the colors, the exuberance and the energy are all so much fun for all of us to admire and to learn from!<br /><br />Google the term and bring in the abundance of fun :)<br /><br />Love you, Wanda!!!Michele Bilyeuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15979296861999606692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-73092511584295065362011-10-05T16:05:24.366-05:002011-10-05T16:05:24.366-05:00Love that quilting!
