Whimsy - Diane Anderson

One more foray into paper mache - a whimsical face with no body - I thought about naming her Marie Antoinette!!  - Diane Anderson

This is the second of my tulip pictures.  Slightly different arrangement and colors of flowers which came from the same original piece of fabric.  Also an 8 x 10 piece using the same background fabrics and techniques.

Ulla Westermann - Week 10

The background is paper pieced, trying to make it look like rays of light coming from different directions. I quilted the black and white areas and then added the crocheted pieces. This did not turn out the way I imagined. The piece is 10" x 14".

Rachael Goldman week 10, I think

I took a class on encaustics at Wild Heather last week. So I made a small piece. It's 9x9, with a substrate of painted cardboard. The sun is stamped napkin and the tree/leaves are painted paper towel. The text reads: And still, after all this time the Sun has never said to the Earth "you owe me." Look what happens with love like that. It lights up the sky - Rumi

My original intention for this challenge was to work on a series of 8 x 8 inch pieces that I have been designing in Photoshop Elements, but I haven't gotten to them yet as I have been working on other things.  So I decided to change my intention.  I am going to use this challenge to finish pieces that I designed awhile ago, but never made up.  For now, all of my pieces will be 8 x 10 inches.  This first piece is a simple broderie perse applique of some tulips that I cut out of a great piece of fabric.  The background started with a piece cream colored chiffon that I fused to a piece of black and white diamond fabric.  I stitched along the lines and then appliqued the tulips on top.  - Judy Ahlborn

Storyteller, by Judy Duffield

"Storyteller" combines the challenges of two weeks: adding weaving and text to a piece. Just as stories are woven from many strands--both positive, as in a griot keeping her heritage alive, and negative, as a gossip--this quilt has many colorful ribbons coming together, borne of the the storyteller's imagination.
