I couldn't resist drawing them when they were opened. I love the positive and negative look on the outside edges. Now I have to decide how to quilt it.
    I love Iris. You did a great job.

    The irises are beautiful. Irises are my favorite flower. I don't draw well, so I am in awe of your talent.

    Can you please do a small piece, and do a tute for those of us who might like to try the technique? I've seen this done multiple ways, brushed over with textile medium to set, etc. but I'd like to see what you do.
