Entrants will create an original Quilt of any size that incorporates at least three of the following five required elements
Bird/s
Mountains
Silver fabric, thread, item
Recycled/repurposed material
Beads
I sent in my entry in and got the ok to post it, so here it is
It has a background of used tea bags gel mediumed to fabric.
I drew my design on the teabag fabric and painted in highlights with white and the branches with brown before moving on to color.
I painted the color with transparent washes of textile paint.
After quilting it with wool felt I sewed an embossed metal wing made from a sheet of aluminum layered over a piece of copper and a wing shaped piece of wool felt to give it more stability. A silver brad pierced through copper creates his shoulder joint.
