Use Gai's original technique, inspired by her love of nature, to "paint" with floral fabrics, creating impressionistic quilts in the style of Monet. Her simple and effective technique sets floral fabric squares on point to enhance the interaction and blending of color; flower motifs are centered within the squares. Impressionist Quilts gradually layers information leading to the completed landscape. She presents general principles of design, color, and fabric selection, then gives detailed instructions for each of the wallhangings. With few rules, you will find many opportunities to develop your own style and create a luminous fabric painting.
