Artist : Denim quilts by Julie Floersch

Thanks to Sophie for reminding about the new Denim exhibition at Mr. Kitly in Brunswick, Australia, featuring the work of Renilde de Peuter and several other talented artists. It was here that I discovered Julie Floersch's denim quilts. I had to know more!

Denim Quilt by Julie Floersch

She had been interested in making quilts but thought she would pick it up when she was older but couldn't get the thought out of her head. This was her first quilt she made. That girl can sure make a complicated plan!

I think I like the back just as much as the front.




Here's an article about her quiltmaking and her tumbler site. She now makes quilt accessories like earings, necklaces and purses under the company name of KWILTI.

I hope we see more of her quilts in the future. She's truly gifted.

  2. Interesting! She uses jeans a lot, but pretty classical patterns, right? What exactly is it that you like so much about this work? I will get back to it tonight, we are on our way out now..
