What She Saw ---- update

Here is how the new rose is shaping up.   Still have to finish 3 of the petals,   I like all 20 something animals hidden in it.  They are not as easy to see this time.  I also like the added animals on the sides.  I must decide on how to quilt it so I can have it done by Thursday night.   The back has been made with scraps of the front fabric and an extra red fabric I had on hand and is just waiting for me to finish the front.

Wild Goose Chase

My Wild Goose Chase quilt was finished and arrived at the Berea Quilt Extravaganza on time.  It is part of the "Flying Things Challenge"  The challenge fabric is the navy blue in the sky.Here is a picture of it and another  of my quilts in the exhibit, Greener Pastures.  Now Wild Goose Chase is being exhibited at the Berea Hospital.  Fabric used are mostly batiks.  Wings are made of my own walnut dyed fabriks and batiks.  Wings are quilted, are not flat against the quilt.  One foot extends forward our of quilt.  
Wing in progress, before quilting.

Sneak Peak


Here is a sneak peek at my quilt for flight.  I have to finish it up for an art show August 1st in Berea, KY.  It has been modified  a lot since this image.  This was a preliminary layout.  The geese in the sky are just scraps being  auditioned, so is the beak. The girls arms and braids have been redone.   Now to quilt it and make the wings 3 dimensional.
