Description of Presentation

3D Quilting Journey 20 years of exploration in 3D quilting and how it has changed my life.

2027 will mark 20 years of 3D quilting for Dominique!
Dominique will share her experience and progress during those 20 years. She will take you on her journey of turning to textile art and making quilting her medium of choice. Dominique envisions every detail in her mind, then brings it to life through drawing. These drawings evolve into models and then into patterns. Her creations dance in the wind, defy gravity and invite exploration and interaction.
