Hopefully some of you also have fabric that you cannot remember the history of..........<br />And it is bound all around, just differently. Traditional on two sides and faced on the other two.

I am sure you have got a lot out of it.<br />I like your mix of quilting and applique and your background fabric.<br />HeidiHeidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02817855434914258956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-43067094338508432.post-67249427597216275092010-08-02T20:14:51.528-07:002010-08-02T20:14:51.528-07:00Helen, I think your painting classes are well wort...Helen, I think your painting classes are well worth your time investment. Not long ago there was a discussion on QuiltArt about pursuing general art classes and how they would enhance our fiber work. Don't worry about time away from your fiber work...you will come back to it with a more depth in your "technique toolbox".Fiber on a Whimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03964441100368892245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-43067094338508432.post-20668885503880335412010-08-02T11:11:13.061-07:002010-08-02T11:11:13.061-07:00What a beautiful piece!

Did you paint the background fabric? And is it really only bound on two sides? I like it!!Carolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14402284255342698129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-43067094338508432.post-17925961273015062262010-08-01T11:13:58.835-07:002010-08-01T11:13:58.835-07:00I love your thread sketching and the way you used ...I love your thread sketching and the way you used the quilting to "suggest" leaves!
