About Cindy

The world of art has always brought me joy. From my childhood explorations with chalk and paint to my creations using fabric and thread, I have utilized art as my vehicle to stretch my wings and explore the world around me.

My favorite art form has been given many names; I know it as “free-form” quilting. This direction has taken me on a journey resulting in the formation of more than 200 art pieces. Most of them center strictly around the manipulation of fabric. Some of the later pieces have added elements of hand stitchery. All of them have brought me an immense sense of joy.

I use this blog to share glimpses of my art and the environment in which it is created. Most of my art pieces are available for purchase. You may see a sampling of them at Raven’s Wish Gallery in Janesville, Wisconsin.

My art is periodically on display in a variety of venues. To learn about my current exhibits you may send an email to cindy [at] inastitchquilting [dot] com

Now go and create your own masterpiece. With warm hugs…

Hide the Flowers, Art Piece 104

| Cindy Anderson

Time once again to add another finished item to my portfolio! This fiber art piece is the ninth in my series of 14 polyester stretch velvet creations. Links to the other members can be found here. Measuring 7 3/4” x 9 3/4” it was assembled from both polyester and cotton fabrics. To add interest rows of hand stitching was incorporated.

The layer of fabric directly beneath the teal velvet was the inspiration for Art Piece 104’s name. Although it would be nearly impossible to tell, the reverse side of the material was printed with a rather ugly floral image. To camouflage the disturbing design I decided to flip the fabric over and use the underside instead. This change in orientation inspired me to name my piece Hide the Flowers. Hide the Flowers is currently for sale at Raven’s Wish in Janesville, Wisconsin.

Warm regards for a cozy and productive day!

Disco, Art Piece 103

| Cindy Anderson

I always enjoy sharing new additions to my portfolio. Today’s specimen was the eighth miniature fiber art piece to be created while in attendance at the Susan Lenz class at Woodland Ridge Retreat in May, 2019. Links to the other members of the series can be found here. Known as Disco, Art Piece # 103, it measures 7 3/4” x 9 3/4”. Disco was created from polyester and cotton fabrics. To add extra pizazz I incorporated one gray and black bead along with hand and machine stitching. I named this item Disco because of its fluorescent colors. Their flashing neon presence reminded me of the era when polyester stretch velvet and disco balls were the “in” thing.

With warm wishes for a wonderful day!
