BACKGROUND MEETS FOREGROUND

Between head banging trying to figure out my new Brother Cut n Scan machine, time has been spent creating a background for a new project that will feature a machine cut tree. 


Though I normally use my own hand-dyed fabrics, this piece uses a combination of commercial and my ice-dyed cottons.  As is typical for my landscape art quilts, it is constructed on a stabilizer.....(Pellon non-fusible light weight)

Finally, I managed to cut a usable tree!!  

                                         

A few clouds are just the beginning of the many additions I'm planning on adding.....stop back to see how this develops.
