Yet Another Quilt
Is this just another quilt? Hint: click on the image to enlarge. What do the different textures have in common?

Paper clay?

Looks like they all have paper clay components

Paper clay is exactly what I would say, although I can’t tell if it is used in the bottom right square.

Lots of negative spaces, I think paper clay, too.

There are hollow parts?

1) Bronze
2) Steel that did not sinter properly.

I do not know what they have in common–but the piece is lovely.
I would like to take lessons.

Nature theme?

Bronze.

Paper clay???

Stamped impressions?
September 19th, 2013 at 7:14 pm
Mokume gane?

I am guessing paper clay may have been used but also the “jumbo” claymill extruder.
September 19th, 2013 at 7:41 pm
It looks like they are all extruded (except maybe the bottom right one) with paper clay?
September 19th, 2013 at 7:53 pm
Ummmmm…this is tough. I say same few textures used they are just embossed and impressed to give the different looks, but I’m probably Completely wrong! Hahahah

I’d say they have the theme in common (something with wood / tree), and they look like they were made of bronze and steel, and the steel didn’t sinter properly. The steel seems to be below the surface of the bronze.

my best guess would be negative space caning using the extruder as a tool. Materials used in extruder: bronze and an organic matter that will burn away ( paper clay?)

Each square has a 3 dimensional look to it.

the mokume gane patterns looks like it has been combind with some combustable core material.

All these textures look like bone samples under the microscope I remember from A & P in college!

I like the picture of you grinning over the riddle.

Mokume gane?

extrusion for all tiles, including the bail, and most (all?) pieces with negative space from paper clay
September 20th, 2013 at 8:23 am
what have they in common? I think they are all made with the same material – your other quilts tend to be a mix of materials. Have you created a new clay?
September 20th, 2013 at 8:44 am
Are they all wood cells?

Some of the answers are correct in what only some of the textures have in common but not all of them; some of them are correct in what all the textures have in common but not all of what they have in common.

I have not used it yet but I just purchased the new Clay Mill Core Set. I wonder if it would make the bullseye pattern if used in a negative space caning technique. Perhaps cut lengthwise for some of the woodgrain patterns. But that bottom right square has me stumped unless it was maybe “smush-a-game”. Can’t wait to hear the answer!
