Remember my little leaf quilt that was one of a series of journal-sized quilts that used shadows in some way and tried out a new technique? I did finally finish another in that series a few weeks ago:
This is a small piece 8 1/4 x 11" but I got to play with the curved background, with pearl cotton for the quilting stitching again, and with perspective. All the fabric, except the black, is my own hand-dyed.
This is also the first time I tried facing a quilt, a finishing I have used several times since. I found a facing method I like better now, but this convinced me it was not a difficult process, and I really like the look.
And now it is snowing again . . .
