Default New-to-me techniques

Over the last couple of weeks I have taken a little time to try new things. I started with some Christmas fabric that has been in my stash waaaay too long. The first photo is the original fabric. The second is photo is a runner using the Fractures technique. And the third is a hot pad I won at a quilt show on the left, and my try at chenilling on the right. I had a lot of fun. Thanks for looking.

It made a cute runner top and you can't even tell it's Christmas fabric! Nice chenille hot pads.

Perfect fabric for that technique. I have to look that up on how to do that. They look great.

You have found creative ways to transform fabrics. The results are stunning.

I love trying new things too. It is hard to get motivated to just stop and try them. Yours are great! How fun to see the change it made in your christmas fabric.

Nice job! I'm really interested in that Fractures technique--where did you get the directions?

I just recently saw a "fractured" quilt and now can't remember where! Yours table runner is great, and I like the other things also. I have wanted to try to chenille also just haven't taken the time.
