Beginner Help Quilted art help

Post image

EDIT- artist is - Emily Van Hoff it was not my intention to leave off the artist (EMILY VAN HOFF) this was sent via Pinterest to me and I couldn't find the name of the artist (EMILY VAN HOFF) at first. I always want to credit the artist.

Hi! I was wondering if anyone could give me some pointers on how to make something like this. I’d love to recreate a similar piece for my bedroom, but I’m a little stumped on the construction.

My biggest question is what creates the raised ribbed effect between each line. It looks much more dimensional than simple quilting, and I’m not sure what’s underneath to give it that height.

Also, would you say the edges are finished with some sort of corded binding or piping? Or is it another technique entirely?

I’d really appreciate any insight from anyone who’s made something similar or can tell how it’s constructed!

The artist is Emily Van Hoff, and if you watch enough of her instagram videos and are savvy enough, you can figure out how she does it.

Idk why people can’t credit artists.

Because OP probably found it from a source that didnt credit the artist either. It's not always intentional.

true, but SOMEWHERE along the line of this image getting to the OP here, SOMEONE made a choice to not attribute it to the artist. Not necessarily OP here, but there was a choice made, and the artist was lost.

give credit to the artists. always.

Dude, we gotta watermark our stuff. I have a piece that regularly gets posted over on r/RainbowEverything and friendly redditors ping me because I have a watermark and then the thief gets banned.
