stained glass

 

I chose stained glass as my inspiration.

I used vignette fabric to show how the glass changes color as the light hits it.

I used black cloth to represent the frame.

I can't be very detailed because of time, but it's still an attempt.

THE NEXT CHALLENGE

Regarding the next challenge for the end of July I assume I will be the next person to choose the subject as Jinny challenged us with  "Trees", then Rosemary with "Shapes" and Momo with this present challenge.  I will put up the next challenge tomorrow so watch this space! 

 My favourite thing would be to travel through Europe again.  I fell in love with Italy and in particular Venice when I travelled there some time back.  However, in 2023 my grand daughter went on a school tour of Europe and whilst in Venice she took some absolutely beautiful photographs of that city.  When the subject came up I asked her if I could use one of those photographs in a quilt for this time around, which she was very happy to do. 

To be honest it wasn't the easiest quilt to do as I battled with perspective (and straight lines) but in the end I was very happy with my piece.  I did simplify some of it as it would probably be too difficult to incorporate every minute piece but I was very happy with the end result.

My favourite things

 
 As you can tell from my piece, sewing and reading are two of my favourite things. It was fun deciding how to combine two of my favourite activities. This is how it turned out.  Rosemary
