Yet Another Confetti Art Quilt.......
#25
I normally throw very small scraps ( too small for crumb blocks). Now i may have to start saving the smallest bits to try out this technic.
Do you use matching thread or invisible thread when you make these? Do you fuse the pieces first?
Any tips on your process would be greatly appreciated.

i do not fuse the little pieces. After they are placed where I want, the whole piece is covered with tulle, pinned heavily, and then I FMQ it.

The little pieces are not fused. They are "sprinkled/placed" where I want them and when I am satisfied with the whole picture, I place dark colored tulle over the entire piece and quilt it. There are some instructions on the Internet and YouTube regarding this process. It's a great way to use little scraps. Batiks work really well because they are the same color on both sides. I have baggies full of different colors all ready to go! It's so much fun!
