I love this quilt Linda, like you I don't usually 'do' brights but this is gorgeous. Hope to see it 'in the flesh' at show'n'tell!
ReplyDeleteImpressive! Congratulations! I like the model, I like the colors, I like the result! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteHello Linda,
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing finished.
best wishes,

I am very, very jealous of this piece. You have to be quite daring to use such saturated color, but what a great result. I need more bright fabrics.
ReplyDeleteThis is a gorgeous piece. As I'm addicted to color (can't seem to do anything subtle), I can only approve! I've enjoyed going over your blog and seeing your textile work/play.

Thank you for visiting my blog and your kind comment. This was my first attempt at making a landscape from felted pieces. Not great art, but lovely textures and colors.
