Background

07/11/2007 - Odd pieces of leftover fabric were dyed using acid dyes leftover from dyeing fleece. The background was machine pieced from curved strips fof the dyed fabric. The dark tree pieces were bonded to the background using double-sided fusible. The image was very lightly quilted then a very narrow dark border added followed by a wider coloured border. The quilt has not yet been bound. .
