TREES

I must apologize for my lack of posting much on this piece so far however...quilting these branches take time and my time in the studio is still limited.   They are finished now and it is time to move into the mid-ground now...I am excited about this piece and hope it works out as I envision it.

THE SECRET IS OUT

With all the background trees finished I have sketched out the new additions....yes....turkeys!
Since we moved here they have been daily visitors.  I enjoy them immensely and their antics and posturing.  Had to immortalize them or perhaps honor them in an art quilt.   So here is a sneak peek of what lies ahead. 

"Hanging On"

I assembled a rock fence directly on my teflon sheet.  Then I fused it in place on my background adding in rocks where needed. Now I will quilt them.

Once I was finished with that I added my farmer.   Are you putting it together yet?  My title (which is a big hint) is "Hanging On".

Stump

 Worked on the stump for several hours this morning.  It is finished and quilted.

The "Ghost" owl is placed on the scene to check how things are lining up.  I am happy with this.
Now I have to clean the house and do some laundry.  The owl will have to wait but that give me time to think about fabric choices etc.

Unbelievably warm day today.  It is in the 70's and sunny.   Have to fit in a nice walk with the dogs.  We will not have this weather for a long time so have to at least get out there for a while.
