On this blog the members of Sky-is-the-Limit group show the results of the challenge quilts they make. We started with each quarter a new theme, but have changed this to a monthly theme. Knowing that life can interfere with good intentions it is not compulsary to make a quilt each month, but at least 4 quilts per year should be doable. Every quilt measures 12"x12".

Abstract
Apologies for this being a couple of days late. The background fabric was the cotton under layer of my old printing cloth from my printing board. This has been overlaid with sheer fabrics bondawebbed in place. This was then stitched using machine embroidery thread on the lettering and invisible thread for the background quilting.

Mandy,this has turned out really well.I wish all my 'accidental'things were as good!
ReplyDeleteInteresting way you worked with this theme. I like it!
ReplyDeleteIt is a great when you find that something accidental is exactly what is needed for a piece. It is so suitable for the abstract theme.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your comments.
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever twist to a very wide topic and very well executed, I particularly like the colour contrasts.
ReplyDeleteI love the variation in the size of the lettering, very, very effective.
ReplyDeleteThanks Margaret and Ann. I enjoy messing around with lettering.
