Absolutely beautiful! I am just beginning to attempt art quilts, and have not yet done any quilts with "extra" attached pieces. Your Leaves by Moonlight is totally inspirational--I've got to try some of your cool techniques!

Valeri if I liked your autumn toned leaves, I LOVE this Leaves by Moonlight! Of course this and the woven background are my preferred colour choices,being a Moon person by nature.
ReplyDeleteLike Beth in the comments before me,I must try these tecniques in my attempts at Art journal quilts
