Zebra's looking

This is an art quilt for a challenge with a group I work with " Fast Friday Fabric Challenge 56." Topic of the challenge "Rhythm & Pattern". The three rows of squares represent sky, water and earth. The Zebra is an embroidered piece, I made some time ago, It is recycled from an eye glass case that I never completed. Ha ha ha ! The quilt is small size 9" square, raw edged. backed with jean material which creates an interesting finish to the edge. Recycled scrapes form a tree on the border, threads I have collected mark the ground covering. The Zebra is taking a peek!

Please make comments  tell me what you think- I can handle it - I lov getting comments. Please follow my blog - Thank You:) xoxo

Quilt of Italian Villa in process

It is taking me forever to complete this quilt. Lots of detailed thread painting. Of course I get obsessed with the thread painting. Sooo I take breaks so I can study what I am doing and make sure of what I am doing.. The ivy was a challenge and has several layers of fabric, painting and embroidery etc. Hoping for an inspiring result.

Oliver

Quilt,ARt

This mini quilt started out to be a professor, preppy professor. I made a hat was ready to put Bob the professor together. Hmmm the personality of Oliver appeared.

I drew the professor, created a hat actually fused the fabric figure to a back ground, creative thoughts appeared, he needed purple on his face and the hat had to go. Yikees!

I added lots of thread painting (free motion embroidery) Yarn, bits of this and that and threads for the hair ! I got the tie from my hubby's closet. I just used part of it and it is the under part of the tie! Shhh:(

After my guy became Oliver. I dug into my very big button collection to use as a border, with ragged edges.

SO much fun to make:) Do you think he looks like a professor?

Quilt Ocean 5

My love of the ocean, and my Florida roots inspire me to focus deep into the ocean, with my own funky visions। I have just returned from Panama Beach Florida with the white sand and crystal clear water। My son has requested a quilt with a beach scene for his new apartment. What an awesome complement. I took lots of pictures :) I also had lots of fun! Please visit my shop @ Etsy

Quilt, Other Worlds

Other Worlds Quilt - My items are mostly recycled. My husband is an upholster and I get all the left overs. Lots of fun I have even made drapes for my house:)Thank you for visiting my blog. "Other Worlds" lets us look and imagine that there just maybe other dimensions and worlds. This quilt is perfect to hang in that spot that just needs something to make it pop. This is a one of a kind and will never be created again.Colorful Quilt 19 inch square art quilt. This was painted on fabric with acrylic fabric paint, Indian ink and lots of free motion embroidery 100% cotton. I also used a method of dripping alcohol over the wet paint. This added definition and free flow
