When Robyn Jones wants to relax, she strolls on the unspoiled mountainside of her Colorado home to visit her horse, Winddancer, the muse for her business name and logo. There, she can also appreciate the abundance of wildlife inside the adjacent National Forest including mountain lions, bear, elk, chipmunks, and antelope, all of these further inspire her designs. Winddancer designs are inspired by Robyn’s extensive travels throughout the United States, Australia, Europe, and Asia. A devoted photographer and quilter for over two decades, Robyn includes her photography, art, and quilting skills in designs for travel quilts that currently are the United states of america State Quilt Series, the Australia State Quilt Series, the Right here Wildlife Series, and the Military Series honoring our U.S. service people.
Every Winddancer state quilt design is planned to show aspects of specific states while mixing architecture, floral, wildlife, and history in to a cohesive quilt picture. Since neighboring states share many features, landscapes, and sports activities, blocks may be interchanged to personalize your quilt with your own experiences.
Robyn works closely together with her Australian artist husband, Kevin, and each design is sucked from real life experiences or photographs of her travels. The completed designs are generated right into a computer template which is broken into layers bobs for quilting, and then many versions are supposed to find a very good coloring for that final quilt. Importantly, military quilt patterns needs to be planned utilizing a common palette of colours. This enables blocks being interchanged along with other state and country designs, so quilters can create their particular “Travel Quilt” or “Where I’ve Lived Quilt.”Winddancer Creations quilts are designed with simplicity in your mind to ensure that entire families can take advantage of creating a special quilt. Hawaii designs can be used on top of a family’s travel experience and a few blocks, including the Wild Mustangs block from your Utah State Quilt design, can be produced by children as early as 10-14.With Winddancer designs, color and layering are employed extensively to produce detail. Patterns from other designers tend to be much more complex and need advanced techniques or numerous years of quilting experience.
