I invite you to view some of my work on Flickr.
I have work at Creative Awakenings, Quilting Arts (Issue 33 , a blog challenge, Issue 39, an “extra“) and Fiber Arts/Mixed Media.
You can also join me on Cracked Paper Quilts, my Ning network, to not only see my work but find out how I did it. There are other wonderful artists to explore and interact with as well.
Here’s an artist profile.
Very nice to see your website. I always buy the magazine
Quilting Arts and Cloth.paper.scissors here in the Netherlands an that is why I have the adresses and the
websites. I always look at them and spent a delightful time
to look at all that websites. I make also art with paper
(books), textile and painting and thet is the reason that
I’am interested.
Look at my website yourself.
Many greetings.

Annette, thank you so much for sharing your website with me. You do very beautiful work, and in so many different formats. Many greetings to you as well!
Hi Carol,
I really enjoyed your QA article. Thanks for the level of detail you included. I do have a few questions about your process. You refer to your support as a wood painting panel; are you using something like Masonite, thin plywood, or a regular stretched canvas? What do you like best? More importantly, you mentioned wrapping the piece around the support. How do you do your corners neatly? I cannot seem to manage them. Do you staple them to the back? Finally, do you a favorite brand of gloss medium for all the adhering? They do vary in their viscosity.
Thanks very much,
Debra Gash
Hi Debra! The panels I am talking about look like this:

I included it as a link with my article, but it wasn’t in the magazine (perhaps because it’s Canadian). These are very light, made of birch plywood, I believe. I love using them, for this application and for painting.
I do my corners by just meeting them, no overlap. I fudge whatever doesn’t quite meet with acrylic medium and the appropriate color paint.
My favorite medium of choice is Golden. I used a soft gel gloss medium. You should gesso the panel first, as the fabric then adheres better.
Does that cover everything you wanted to know?
Carol
