Lesley Ruxton July 2011

After visiting the Sisters Quilt Show in Oregon
and filling 3 suitcases all labelled heavy by the airline this seemed appropriate for the title Travel
Free hand drawn, painted with acrylic paint free machine stitch.

Jane Panton - July

For July I used the word 'luxurious'. I started off with a piece of felt I made last summer on a course with Jeanette Appleton at Bankfield museum. It has been hanging around ever since! I free machined into it quite heavily and then sewed on clusters of beads. The original piece of felt has various threads and pieces of sheers embedded into it.

This is the first  piece of our 5"x7" challenge and I am using the word 'garden'. For my inspiration, I spent a very wet but enjoyable morning at Warley Open Gardens. I used procion dyed binding tape and wove it to form the background. Then I free machined floral designs onto it and finished with a small amount of hand stitching.
