Long Road to Bethlehem
I'd been wanting to do a Christmas quilt honoring Jesus. I had the idea for this one and inlisted Greg and Megan, members of our church, to model for me. My husband again did the photography.
Techniques: Applique with painted shadows and details. Pieced background areas. Heavily quilted.
