Default Pixel Picture for daughter and son-in-law.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]468270[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]468271[/ATTACH] This picture is completed with 1/2" squares, using 24 shades of blues, ironed onto a graph-grid which I drew onto iron-on interfacing, then had it professionally framed. If I remember correctly took about 2 weeks working 8 hours per day, to place the fabrics onto the grid. I did this pictures in 2011, and was not quilted and not sewn.

I think this is fantastic I never could figure it out to make it look good and never to look like the person. You truly are talented.
