Red Maple (aka Free Fallin')
20" x 26"
I hadn't done any sewing for a long, long time. Taking the leap to leave a 26 year abusive marriage has made me feel like like I'm free-falling in life. I needed to get quilting again and when I read about Quiltswap 2 on QA it seemed like just the motivation I needed. The swap was a blast - a great way to collect other artists' work.
I've recently been burning and melting fabrics - who knew I was a closet pyro? The three dimensional leaves are Kunin felt, heavily stitched and then zapped with a heat gun. Totally addictive.
