Judy Ahlborn - 10 of 25


This is the third piece in my floral series.  I used the same techniques and same original fabric.  I think the yellow background gives it a whole different look.

I call this "Spider Flower"
I am trying to incorporate leftovers hanging around my studio. Hopefully they will get a new life when I add something to them and make them stand lone quilts. I took the background block and appliqued the tendrils, covered it with a piece of tulle, added decorative stitching, and lastly a big button in the center.

Ulla Westermann - Week 14 + 15 + 16

Journey through the color circle

Week 14: The grass is always greener ...



Week 15: ...lost...



Week 16: ...and found!



Blue is home base. The greener grass on the other side looks more promising and so the journey begins. In the beginning, close to blue, the shapes are circles, but as we get further away, the shapes get crazier. When we get closer to blue again, the shapes calm down again. Some of the shapes are fused and stitched on, some of them are created by cutting away the top layer and showing the fabric underneath, and some are crocheted. All three pieces are 14" x 10".

This is the second in my floral series I am working on using the same fabric source for the flowers.  The background on this one is the same as the first one so they could be hung as a set.  The next pieces will all have different backgrounds and different flower arrangements.
