Margaret “Peggy” Black considers herself an “improvisational textile artist.” Without a ruler or measuring tool, she machine quilts her pieces and dyes her fabrics using screenprinting, paper lamination, monoprinting, or shibori—a Japanese manual resist tie-dying technique that creates patterns on fabric. Densely quilted, her textiles exemplify fabric paintings. According to Black, “the rhythm and repetition of piecing fabric, cutting those pieces to create new configurations and rejoining them, create vibrant, abstract structures.”
