?? Of course you do... you need a piece of muslin or fabric for background, a glue stick and just start one. If you need to look at a picture and copy that.... do that... .. it is so much easier than you think. I am challenged reading and understanding traditional quilt patterns and cannot stay in the lines so this works for me ;). The biggest challenge for SOME is to color outside the lines. Just let it flow.. this donkey one took me just two hours to complete, ( to the stage where I was done piecing it.) fabric was flying everywhere, it is okay to mess up your room it can be cleaned up later. I would love to do another tutorial on this ;). I started the night scene... but have been on vacation, it will get finished ;). I am going to post another one that is done to the stage of doing the quilting. This is 4, yes 4 pieces of fabric !!! That is so super easy :()> then the fun comes when you "thread paint" or stipple or whatever. check this out. Think outside of the box today :)
4 pieces of fabric only , sky two shades of mountains, and the river scene.
