My guild, Clark County Quilters, recently hosted a class led by Kathy Kerler on how to use sheer fabric overlay to make a wall hanging. It was a really clever way to add applique without having to sew around the edges first. The quilting stitches held the applique in place!
I have been challenging myself to make fiber art pieces WITHOUT lime green and decided for this piece to use turquoise shades. A few people in the class were shocked that I didn't bring green to the class.
The piece was put together in the class with fused fabric pieces cut out on her cutting machine. I used both circles and stars. Then, I quilted around all of the motifs in the class.
I'm not sure if it's quilted enough for me yet. Anyway, I hope you like it at this stage.
