    Blog Hop - Buffy Beggs

    Today Buffy Beggs shares her Benefit Auction donation image.  Remember - only one week before the auction starts!!
    Art Quilt by Buffy Beggs

    Due to technical issues, we can't share process pics, but here's some information about the quilt design:

    Buffy's image was created with the help of the Kaleidoscope Kreator software and InkAid.  The InkAid was painted on with a foam roller over canvas before inkjet printing.  This results in an image that looks like the image on your computer, rather than a faded version of it.  The InkAid has captured the vibrancy of the paua shell colours beautifully.

    Check out more inspiration here!
