Thread: 2nd landscape in progress :-)

I posted pictures and lost everything. :-( Not sure how that happened. I will try it again, I will have to write less cause I do not have time.

This is my 2nd landscape. The first one I did I posted yesterday under "pictures" if you want to take a peak. I thought it would be fun to post pictures as I go. see it in it's raw stages. I use a mixed combo techque. I use mostly from the book Replique Quilts by Chris Lynn Kirsch. I also use a messy applique. I am not sure what you call it. as I stated in my first post where everything was lost, I break many rules and sorry If offend anyone. I am far from a traditional quilter, although I admire those of you who are.
:-)

The pictures I have included are my quilt in progress, fabrics I have used, or hope to use. Also the oringanal picture, plus tracing of what I wanted in my quilt.

For those of you who had mentioned you want to try this, you must! Really fun! Most important thing I think is not to give up when it looks silly or wrong. I can't count how many times I made mistakes and things just flat out look strange. I walked away, came back and made it right eventually. you can see by the picture that it turned out pretty good. yes, I was surprised as was the rest of my family and friends. haha! I walked away with $500 and first place with that first landscape quilt I did..so you never know where a quilt will lead you. When you think it is all over, don't quit. keep working on it! Might be a winner or just plain beautiful when it is done. Also teaches us perserverence. Happy Quilting!!

Love seeing the WIP.....keep posting as you progress

Can't wait to see it finished. Good job!
