Pat Sturtzel uses a variety of multi-step processes to create pattern, texture, and depth on fabric.  

She creates beautiful items — quilts, fabric swatches, batik designs, tie-dye, book covers, small duffel bags and "zip-it-up" bags, and more.  Her fiber art creations often start with dyeing fabric or garments. Layers may be added through over-dyeing, use of soy wax, printing additional layers, adding stitching and the resulting fabrics are used in the creation of a variety of items.  She utilizes various sorts of sewing and quilting machines (long-arm, etc.) and often combines straight-line and swirl designs to highlight and ornament pieced fabric pieces when quilting them together

Pat Sturtzel also teaches classes on dyeing, batik, quilting, and much more...
