Thread Play

2013

Another exciting Fiber Arts Friends challenge was for each of us to make a self portrait.  We all groaned when Donna brought up the idea.  However, it wasn't long until the inspiration started flowing and the project got going.  Such fun to see all of the different approaches.

I enjoyed making the project and of course the thread is an identifying item in my life.

Here's a peek at the process...applique using a sketch guide.

The quilt is applique, with a nylon tulle overlay, and heavily quilted.

All wall quilts have a "sleeve" attached at the top back for easy hanging using a dowel, or curtain rod.
