FOG

Finished sailboat, reflection was painted on with fabric paint...then loons (there is always a pair on this lake) and finally the tulle fog was pinned on.  I will sew it on tomorrow.
Right now I am very late making dinner!  Hope you like it.  Oops!  Just noticed no reflection on the Loons.  Will have to do that before sewing down the fog.  Luckily I have not done that yet.

Well here is the secret I have been working on….FOG!  This piece is totally experimental so if it works out I will be very happy and if it does not I will have learned a lot.  So far….I am very happy.  More to add but you can sort of understand the journey with this one now.

So how did I do this?   I bet you can guess…..it is layers of tulle.  One complete layer first ….then strips added to make it more dense towards the center until it was at the level I wanted.  Then another complete layer on top .  Lots of pins and quilting over it all.  Not sure this has been done before by anyone else, but I am unaware of it if it has.

Nice to be back in the studio fairly full time again.
