This design was an exploration of that concept inspired by a six-year old’s drawing of a dragon, digitally printed.&nbsp; The silhouette of a cape was chosen to characterize the stories of childhood where children wear capes and have great adventures. This design demonstrated the representable quality of digital printing was viable for creating a wearable gallery for a child. Free-motion quilting used, only added dimension and interest without distraction of the focus of the design - a six-year old’s masterpiece.</p><p><br></p> AU - Constance R Spotts, Ling Zhang DA - 2022/12// DO - 10.31274/itaa.15952 IS - 1 VL - 79 PB - Iowa State University Digital Press PY - 2022 TI - Joya's Dragon T2 - International Textile and Apparel Association Annual Conference Proceedings UR - https://www.iastatedigitalpress.com/itaa/article/id/15952/ ER -
