SNOW TREE - Kelly

Well, I had a lot of inspiration for this one after receiving a foot of snow last week.  So I just HAD to snow dye the background (oh and the backing and sleeve fabric as well....) in honor of the snow and the theme.

The background is woven snow dyed fabric, raw edge applique using commercial B/W and stone fabrics.  I folded the front fabric to the back for a "binding" because I wanted to get as much of the tree as possible and not to detract from it.

So here it is...a gray day in the frozen tundra after a winter snow....
