Veriquilt

As I said before I really enjoyed the Pixeladies classes in Photoshop Elements , it's very interesting to see what you are able to do when you manipulate a photo. I've tried to make some sketches of buildings typical from the Southern part of Sweden. This one is 12" x 12" and doesn't fit my ink jet printer but I managed to print on Soluvlies which I then attached to soft linen. It's machine and handstiched and then the Soluvlies is rinsed away.     I also made adjustments on a flower (don't remember its name) which I printed on an Inkjet Fabric Sheet and finally made some thread sketching.       I link this to Off the Wall Friday , hope you will take your time to visit Nina Marie's blog.

But apart from that the exhibition was a success and we had around 1400 visitors during these four days. Our exhibition was part of a lager annual one which take place in the area between Uppsala and Gavle. I was lucky to have two art quilts sold and we all had lots of positive feed back. Today I was very happy when the postman arrived with Leni Levenson Wiener's book Thread Painting , very much needed as I'm starting a new project.
