Quilting? It depends only on how you're going to display this. Unless you expect it to be handled..don't bother! (or perhaps I should say, Mistress?:)) |
Your sweet little poochie just comes alive off of the page. What a great job you have done.
Sorry, I am no help about what you should do next, I just wanted to tell you how much I love your quilt. |
Lori Kennedy has a woodgrain FMQ pattern that's really easy and looks great. You can see it at: http://theinboxjaunt.com/quilt/free-...ing-tutorials/
I think that would enhance the beauty of the background of this piece. Great job! |
A beautiful collage!

Thanks, cashs_mom....Geri B....I glued all the pieces down a la Susan Carlson, then I cut it out and glued it to the background. Now, I think I will sandwich it and follow the contour lines of his face with quilting and then do the background in vertical lines. I plan to finish it with a knife edge facing.
That's today's plan, anyway.... Watson |
Oh my gosh Watson...you are so talented and did an amazing job on your collage. I’m sure something will pop into your head about quilting him.
|
What a cutie! I would do some thread play.

I have been following a woman named Susan Carlson who teaches classes on fabric collage. She is the one who made the big alligator quilt. I think she sews over tulle but am not sure if she outlines or meanders.
