This is a truly unique baby gift for someone who loves nature! All the fabrics in this quilt are original cyanotype prints, printed on upcycled fabrics. It's very important to me to reuse as much as possible during the art process to help at reducing waste.
The cyanotype process is created by painting an emulsion onto the fabric and then carefully arranging the foliage before exposing it to the sun. The sun changes the background to a beautiful shade of blue and leaves the covered areas the color of the original fabric. Many of these are wet cyanotypes, where the fabric is still wet with the emulsion before exposure. I use vinegar, turmeric and water hotsell to try and alter the print. I use flowers and leaves from my garden, as well as those found on my walks for printing. Each item is carefully arranged before exposure. The fabric is then rinsed and hung to dry. All fabric is washed in phosphate free detergent, hung to dry and ironed before use in my sewing projects.
This quilt measures 36 inches by 36 inches and has a soft, velvet plush backing, giving it extra warmth. The binding is a bright blue.
