Hearts for You

Happy Valentine's Day.

We are all thinking hearts this week, 

so I wanted to share some of the hearts that I made.

I started with two fabrics, a light batik and a solid pink. 

After seaming them together, I enhanced them by using crayons over a rough texture. 

I set up my sewing machine for free-motion quilting and quilted a feather design.

Adding a touch of Lumiere paint in each feather provides fabulous detail.

I  invite you to join me for a class exploring these techniques.

"Feathered Art Quilt"

I will be at Sew Smart in Rhinelander, WI on March 13, 2014, 

and at Sew Smart in Wausau, WI on March 27, 2014.
