I often say that I'm inspired by my materials. While going through my Fabscrap stash the colors of these three pieces made me think of winter skies, snow and trees. Color is usually where I start with an idea, and may be the reason I don't often use patterned fabrics in my art quilts.
Here's how those fabrics became the elements to express my thoughts.
At this stage I add embroidery stitches that bring out the fine details and (of course) hold the pieces together.
Feather stitching over the tree shape suggests a trunk and branches.
