New Beginnings

Just completed my weekly quilt today, and here it is...From The Ground Up (34/2009). Lovely, isn't it? I had the inkling earlier in the week to do a quilt using green shiboried cotton to somehow represent grass, and this is what I ended up with. I love it!

The sky part is shiboried cotton as well. I fused three leaves made from a greener section of the blue fabric, then used a handcut stamp and metallic textile paint for the rest of the leaves. I do love just letting a project create itself, and going with it.

I did a bunch of small pieces yesterday with Shiva Paintstix, rubbings on fabrics previously shiboried, painted or printed. I'll post photos of some of those tomorrow!
