I designed and made this 8 1/2" x 11" journal quilt in July of 2005. I made it for the Journal Quilt Project for the Houston International Quilt Festival. It did travel to some of their other venues to be exhibited. I used cottons, fancy yarns and beads. I also hand painted cheesecloth an olive green to use for some of the leaves.
I used this design as a "jumping off" point to make a large quilt . I will show that quilt soon. A lot of times I will make a small designed quilt that will lead to a bigger piece later on.
This quilt was also chosen to be featured on page 161 in the book ""Personal pages and Inspirations - 1000 Artist Journal Pages" by Dawn DeVries Sokol. ........................
