Sarah Ann Wells week 2

My first landscape!  Originally I had a straight line of trees and was going to use metal behind some to invite you in BUT:  1st layer background of random sized and colored triangles fused directly to the batting suddenly dictated a path and the metal no longer worked!  So much for preplanning, I should know by now the piece will tell me what to do!  The second layer is a gray sheer w/ slightly wrinkled texture (looks misty in person), the top layer is various fabrics (including the black which has paint in 3 colors rolled on to create texture) fused to the sheer.  The whole thing is quilted (metallic thread on the trees) and then faced.
