September mordant botanicals (2026)
cotton muslin and quilting cotton naturally dyed with cochineal, henna, pomegranate, madder, osage, and cutch
some available for purchase for $100-$150; email if interested.
inspired by pennsylvanian dutch folk art and vintage wildflower illustrations. each panel was hand-painted with different alum and ferrous based mordant pastes, then naturally dyed. the different mordant pastes react to the dyes to create varying shades of dyestuff.
machine pieced and hand quilted. long panels around 4”x8”; floral sawtooth measures around 9” square.
completed during my residency at Bunker Projects in pittsburgh, PA ︎
