“American Robin”

“American Robin”
Copyright Susan Brubaker Knapp 2025
23.5" x 33.5"



I have loved robins since I was a child, and have made several pieces featuring them and their nests. The background fabric for this piece is one I made in a class with Pat Pauly – screen printing with thickened dyes. 

Hand-dyed cotton fabric and commercially printed fabric, glue, paint, ink, cotton thread, fusible adhesive, interfacing, cotton batting. 3-D elements made from cotton thread on water-soluble stabilizer.

Fusible and raw-edge appliqué, free-motion quilted.
