9 quiltlets...so far

Here are my 9 (so far) little 4x4" embroidery thingies. They are sort of an extension of my sketchbook. They are drawn on canvas with a marker, then painted with fabric paint (I only have 2 colors, so they all match) and then hand stitched while watching TV in the evening. I scanned them all and created this jpeg---in real life they are still in a stack. I’m going to make some more and see where they go and how to finish, or present them…

  1. So cute, Jane. Many of your favorite things represented here. I love them. The pear is my favorite. What kind of fabric paint did you use? We used acrylic paint in class. They make me smile.

  7. This is just lovely, Jane. I use to do embroidery work, but stopped doing it. Thanks for showing me how cool it can look mixed with other artwork.
