I purchased a small canvas a while ago with the intent of making a small art piece to mount onto it. I got the idea from Cindy Grisdela who paints her canvas black before mounting the small quilt. Here is her full tutorial: mounting-art-quilts-on-canvas-tutorial/ Well, I painted that little canvas and then it sat and actually collected dust on my table. It was time to get that project done!
I pulled out some fabric scraps and sewed 4 improv arc pieces. These were sewn together with coping strips in the same fabrics. It was quilted with metallic pink thread and faced with black fabric. I used gel medium to adhere the quilt to the canvas and let it sit overnight underneath heavy books.
And here is the finished wall art. It's 10" x 10" and I love it!
I hope you like it too!
