Subject: Contemporary quilts
I am trying to gather information about materials commonly used in making contemporary art quilts and other fiber arts. Can anyone refer me to any articles or information about the aging properties or other conservation concerns regarding the following (but not limited to) materials: fusing such as Wonder Under or Steam a Seam; oil sticks; various Dyes, specifically Procion dyes; puffy paints; discharge and other bleaching techniques; iron-on transfers; silk screen; and foils, glitter or metallic powders.
