This art quilt is made from dyed coffee filters. I was surprised at their durability. They stitched up like fabric, leaving no noticeable holes. There are folded ones at each end of the quilt. I refolded and re-ironed them several times before I got a shape I liked, and they never tore once.
The background is my hand dyed satin. It gives such a lovely shine to the quilt.

now, I would really like to see this in person. Tomorrow night?? MT
Another great idea.The colours are so vivid. I may use this idea in my cards.I see they now have bamboo coffee filters.
Fabulous!! Loved seeing it in person.
I would never have thought of it.
Gorgeous!....isn't it amazing that even with all the fabric out there we can still find other things to use in our pieces....used colour catchers are a dream to quilt/paint/dye as well.
Who has more fun than us quilters?
