    I've been wanting to try the melted crayon batik technique and this week I finally did it....not perfect, but it was an "interesting" experience. Will post a pic this week....also waiting to see what everyone else has been working on.

    Okay I don't get into working with paints etc, but enjoy listening to you all chat about it. I just registered 3 quilts for AAQI and two are very traditional quilts with little bits of fabric. The third is more artsy. Here's my try. OBTW ST's poem is:
    Moon, worn thin to the width of a quill,
    In the dawn clouds flying,
    How good to go, light into light, and still
    Giving light, dying.

    Default My monthly project

    This is what I have learned this month: couching yarns by machine onto my hand-dyed fabric. This project isn't done, but it just the first step. I am taking a class at Craftsy, called Stupendous Stitching, and I can work at my own pace. I've really grown to like their classes.

    Everything you've done has worked into such a striking piece of work....please show us when you complete (although it looks finished right now).
