My brother lives in Arizona and I wanted to make him a wall hanging that would fit in with his decorating style. What I came up with was inspired by rusted metal wall art I saw some time ago. I used both raw and turned edge applique along with a variation of Ricky Tims convergence quilts for the backround. Free motion work finished it off.

Omgoodness. That is awesome. Well done.
|
VERY nice!! You should ask your brother if you could borrow it to enter into a few shows.
I don't know about the rest of you, but when I first saw it I heard the whistle music from "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly". |
WOW!!! This is awesome. Beautiful job from another Arizonian.

Excellent! If he doesnt like it, it should find a home here!
|
Super fantastic. You should borrow it back and put it in a show. Its a winner!
|
I love the background!
The appliques seem very intimidating! |
I love it! :thumbup:
|
Looks perfect for a guy.
|
I'm impressed - I love it.
|
That is just totally excellent!! He should be thrilled and I agree that you should put it into a show. Then you can give it to him with a blue ribbon!
|

I really like this..I teach Ricky Tims techique classes and I live in Az..never thought of this..very pretty !!
|
You're very talented. I agree you should borrow it back for entry in a show.
|
Man, this is nice. Love it.
|
Fantastic
|
I live here in AZ and I think that is great. It should fit in with anything he already has. Love it.
|
Very cool great job
|
It's lovely. I will need to try this technique soon. :thumbup:
|
Spectacular! Dummy me, I couldn't for the life of me figure out what everyone was raving about, all I saw was a work surface with a sketch and one figure, a ruler and pincushion, etc. I finally decided there has to be something I am missing, scrolled back up and finally saw the little red x. Ah, hah! Now I know what all the fuss was about. It truly is a work of art.
|
Beautiful!!!!
