It's been a while, I know. You may recall, I participated in a group project wherein we each selected an image, sliced it up into five pieces and handed out one piece to each artist to interpret. I received all the pieces back months ago, got frustrated with this and put it aside. (You can click here to see the history and beginning's of my Van Gogh Iris art quilt slice project.)I've had a hard time getting the pieces to fit together properly and jus
t put it away for a while. Well, I got it back out this past weekend and am bound and determined to complete it. The pieces have now been stitched together and I am in the process of adding painted details to unify the pieces. Once I finish the painting process, I plan on adding some beads and hand stitching. I may or may not add machine quilting/stitching, depending upon how my hand stitching comes out. I'd love to just do the rest of this all by hand.

I'd like to get this finished and maybe get it in to Symposium. We'll see.

I guess that answered my question on your last post :O) I can't wait to see it finished. Yes Yes Yes do the rest by hand! That's my favorite part of any project - the handwork!
I'm so in love with that image - what a great choice for the project & I seriously can't wait to see how it turns out. :)
may the rest of the process be smooth stitching!
Really amazing... a wonderful idea and such great crafting! I'd love to see this live... *sigh*
Do try to get it finished for Symposium...it will blow them away! It is GORGEOUS!
BTW you are going to be an expert embroiderer soon with all your practice.
Oh, I'm so glad you pulled this back out! It is stunning together and AI can't wait to see it with some hand stitching and beads too! GORGEOUS!!! Keep persisting...I know you will get the pieces together and it will be wonderful. I hope you get it in to the Symposium...it is worth seeing!!!
