Yesterday I was gathering the different quilt tops I have done and decided against a couple of them to take for the show. They just weren't really in the same theme of the rest, they were actually pieced items.
Today I decided to finish up one that I started last year. It was originally a tablecloth that I found unusual because it has half naked dancing women stamped on it. So I added a border from a dress and added elephants from a different dress. I put a big circle(cut from a man's silk shirt) in the square that I outlined with fabric from a piece of tapestry. It will have to do for now, I only have the appliqued fused and/or glued on, I don't have time to sew them in place before Sat. Let's just hope they stay. When I was making this I really wasn't sure how much I liked it, that is why I put it away and never finished it. But, I like it ok now that it is completed. I believe it will look pretty cool after it is quilted.
By the way, I did end up fixing the breakfast quilt top yesterday. It is now straighter on that one side:) |

About Me: Hi! I am a fiber artist tryig to work on my art everyday of 2007. With doing this I hope my art will evolve and I will learn many new techniques this coming year. My goal is to be able to make my living doing my fiber arts.
I also make my own earrings when I have a need of a new pair.
I am an avid brick collector and belong to International Brick Collectors Association. I try to attend at least one brick swap a year to share my bricks and to collect new ones from all over the country. I am currently working on a hugh brick walk and patio.
Gardening is another love of mine, my yard is getting rather funky in my yard decorating. I go for the unusaul and people come out my way to see what I have added each year. Last summer was green beer bottles for the flower bed edging and bowling ball towers. I have no idea what I will be adding this coming summer.
