Perhaps Moses – Part 2

As you can see, I’ve gone with an Egyptian theme.

For Part One, click here.

Perhaps Moses

I began this project back in 2003 while taking a class from Susan Brittingham at Quilt University.  The class was called Viewpoints.  I learned alot, and I enjoyed the class very much.   I certainly had fun learning about perspective while drawing a design.

So why did my project sit in a box so long?

Once I added the red and purple border to the top, I thought I ruined it.  I didn’t like it.

Funny how time changes things. 

Now I like it.  Alot.

The fabric is entirely hand painted, and hand dyed, by your’s truly.  Except for the batik used to make the columns.

Why ‘Perhaps Moses’?  I’m not sure what I want to add to this piece, but Moses is under consideration.

Stay tuned.

The Widow’s Mite – Finished

The Widow’s Mite is finished and given to the church.  She will be displayed in the space that she is made for (there is a reason she is the size that she is).
 
 
 
I forgot to take a photo of the back before putting on the hanging sleeve and label, but you can see how much quilting there is.
 
 
I have both enjoyed and learned from the process and the journey.  I hope you have to.
