Finished Baltimore Fox wall hanging

 

Here's the finished wall hanging.
I like how the watercolor floral came out.

Baltimore Fox project 1

Original floral design

Watercolor version of floral design.

Close-up of thread sketching on fox, appliquik turned, machine appliqued.
Nose,eye and whiskers hand embroidered

My current project is a fox with floral laurel wreath. 
I downloaded the fox applique from Raggedy Ruff who specializes
in raw edge applique.
I did my normal appliquik turned under edges with machine applique.
 
On the quilted floral wreaths I will carefully use
watercolor with textile medium for the backgrounds
and inktense pencils for shading. 
I will outline the quilting lines with micron and arteza ink pens
to achieve a line and wash effect.
Fingers crossed for minimal bleeding.

I think I'll add this to quilted mandalas

to make a table topper. 

This year Cocheco Quilters Guild is celebrating

40 years. I designed this panel for the Red and White Challenge.

Here's a drawing of the log cabin we built in 2003.

The medium is pen, dye-na-flow ink and watercolor.

Spring 2020 projects: Cocheco Red and White, Fun with Line and Wash drawing, LLQG Rainbow

I love working on two or three projects at a time.

Here's the best fun: Draw the design, applique and embellish, then Quilt. 

This wall hanging is almost ready for the quilting. 

Draw the design, Paint on watercolor paper using permanent black ink lines and
Dye-Na-Flow ink. Finally, I tried it on fabric, carefully trying to stay in the lines and FMQ.
This 9X9 cutie is hanging in my hutch cubby.

Rainbow quilt challenge for LLQG . This one will go to David's House.
