A cotton fabric quilted collage with netting, ribbon and beads embellishment. In a cityscape under a full moon during a light snow, the iron bench came from a larger house quilt I'm making for a friend of her Victorian house. I enjoyed cutting abstract silhouettes of her black iron porch chairs sitting at an angle and thought a variation of the silhouette deserved a starring role in its own collage.

Very pretty. I love the bead work and the birds, so tiny and so precise…great handwork.
Your Art piece is breathtaking…so serene and beautiful. The hard lines blend so softly into your first snow fall. I would purchase your piece if you did wish to sell, but I could understand this piece will probably never leave home.
How did u get it all attached together? It just all flows together! I could never make that! Love it!
TO: Creative Art and puppy4christmas:
It was all attached with glue (!) (yes, why not?), and stitiching – mostly machine free motion stitching with an embroidery foot. The straight lines were mcahine stitched with a regular foot. While I arrange the pieces, I often pin or hand baste them on the top piece until I’m certain of their position. There’s a little bit of sketching involved at the beginning, but then I try to work with the fabric in front of me and add/subtract fabric and embellishments as I see fit. I’d love to seel this, but I’m not sure what the ruels are about this at CPS. I can list if on my etsy shop if you are still iterested.
