Diane Doran is an award winning quilter who uses digital images in her quilts. She recently made a DVD about her techniques for Quilting Arts TV. You can see her beautiful work here.
Learn how to:
- Combine a variety of image types to create imaginative collages to print on fabric
- Use Photoshop Elements 9 for basic digital enhancement and layering techniques
- Consider color, value, and contrast while designing
- And she explains printing, basting, and finishing options for your collage, and demonstrates ways to enhance your design with quilting, markers, and pencils.
- And much more!
Diane has given some of her blogging friends the opportunity to give a DVD away to one of our readers. So leave me a comment if you would like a chance to win this DVD. I will do a drawing on Wednesday.
If you don’t win one, the workshop will be available from Interweave for download sometime in mid October and in late October the DVDs can be ordered from Interweave.
Here are the other bloggers who will be giving away one of the DVDs.

Fabric and Computers? One of my favorite combos! I would love to win, but if not, will definitely buy!
This is something I have been wanting to try and I know the dvd would be so helpful!
This is a design approach I’ve been wanting to try but have not been successful at so far. I really need help with my software! This book would be ideal as she uses the same software I have – a bonus! :o)

Sounds interesting. I’d love to win the book.
Heck yes! I have admired Diane’s quilts and to learn a little of her digital technique would be wonderful. I am a novice when it comes to using digital images. Thanks for the opportunity to throw my name in the hat, Gerrie and Diane.
I have been wanting to add the digital touch, but wasn’t sure how. This DVD would help a lot!
I need a little updating on my digital skills and would love to take a look at this DVD!
This DVD would be perfect – it is just the techniques I am trying to learn. Thank you for including me in your drawing!
Hi Gerrie, I follow your blog with interest fairly frequently so it was a nice surprise to see you offering this lovely bonus this week. I have just purchased the new Photo Elements 9 and this book would be a lovely addition to a new round of learning! Thanks for letting us participate.
All best wishes……

What a wonderful opportunity, Gerrie. I would love to develop more skill in this area, and this dvd sounds like the perfect way to do it. I really like Dians’s ‘bird’ pieces!
As I love playing on the computer this sounds like a wonderful tool.
What a wonderful giveaway. This is something I haven’t tried before would love to win it and experiment. Thanks for the giveaway
Hi Gerrie, My art is headed in this direction. This type of instruction would be so helpful, I am a very visual learner. Thanks for the opportunity.
Thanks for the opportunity to win this DVD.It looks totally fun!
Hi Gerrie,
I certainly haven’t done alot of quilting over the last couple of years, but I have been doing much more digital photography. So, I’ve got lots of ideas and would love to see what Diane is doing with her quilt design using digital collage!
Hi Gerrie,
I’ve always wanted to try this technique – and have just not related to it yet. This looks like a good one. Please put me into the drawing, and thanks very much.
Gerrie, thank you for your blog and for the opportunity to be included in this drawing. Happy Autumn!

Hi Gerrie and Diane, Thank you for the opportunity to win your new DVD. I have watched you many times on Quilting Arts TV and I love your input, ideas and expertise in Machine Quilting. I am beginning to dabble in thread art and would love to have your DVD to teach me what I need to know. Gerrie thank you for being apart of the blog hop, this is my first time following and I will be checking back often. Thanks again.
This DVD looks great. I’ve always wanted to try fabric digital collage. Thanks for offering the DVD.

Now that’s a technique that I need a lot of help with!
That would be an awesome DVD to have.
Diane’s work is fantastic! I would love to learn more about using digital collage for art quilts. This DVD would fit nicely in my collection.
Gerri This looks like a great book to add to my library. Digital photography is a passion of mine and to be able to use that passion to create more in my textiles would be awesome. I love to collage in all media so this book looks like a must have for me
Awesome, would love have have a copy of Diane’s CD.
I would love to have a copy of this DVD. I’ve done some photo imaging, but would like to learn more.
Hmm… Interesting.. I have yet to explore using photographs as direct images…and this would be a great tool to bring to the little group I lead which is exploring art quilting methods. I’d love to see exactly how Diane does her work.
I’m intrigued to see what is inside! I have enjoyed seeing Diane’s work here in Houston at Quilt Festival, and also use photo imagery in some of my quilts. Thanks for the opportunity!
Cheryl
Gerrie, the DVD cover alone is gorgeous. Makes you want to see what’s “inside.” So put my name in.
Nice post, Gerrie. I can’t wait to watch this video since I am a huge fan of Diane’s! Her work is so inspirational, and it’s a treat to see how she creates her awesome images. V
This is something totaly new to me ,would love to Explore it.
I create digital collage but would love to see what I can with them and fabric. Hope I win.
I’ve played around with teaching myself this as well, but it would help to see what someone else does!
This is a direction I want to go in, but I need help! This would be perfect!!! PS – I’m going to go see your quilt in CHandler.
oooo, would love to have this…i keep trying to teach myself via books but would love to have a dvd!
