Default Art Quilt in progress
Members of my guild issued a challenge last year: an art quilt with Day of the Dead as the theme. It was such fun and I will share photos as soon as I figure out how to move photos to right file. We enjoyed the project so much we decided to make it an annual project. I am stitching some embroidery as my prototypes, to decide on colors and try out different threads and embellishments. In other words, all the fun stuff. This is what I have so far. I love color,can you tell.

Congratulations on a successful picture post! My favourite is the second one. It reminds me of some Mayan/Aztec designs.
