Impressionist Quilts
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.
Babaylan
Fiction. Asian American Studies. As the first international anthology of Filipina writers published in the United States, BABAYLAN reflects the complex history of a people whose roots have stretched to both sides of the globe. The voices represented in this collection offer a broad and varied perspective on the Filipina writer whose diasporic existence is a living, breathing bridge, not only between countries but also generations, as strong voices from the past fuel realities of the future. As a result, vibrant and original art, the trademark of Filipina writers perpetually emerges and evolves. With contributions from over 60 writers--both Filipina and Filipina American--BABAYLAN provides readers with a comprehensive view of a growing and vibrant transnational literary culture. Challenging. Innovative. Fierce and reflective. Somber and funny. No one word can capture the extraordinary range of this collection.
