My latest quilting bender has been along the lines of hand piecing and hand quilting my version of folk art.
This is actually the back of a quilt that I think I like better than the front.
I found a panel of fabric with several versions of "Our Lady of Guadalupe," so I used one of them here. She holds a familiarity to me because I grew up on the Mexican border in Texas. The Lady of Guadalupe is a big deal to the Catholics there. Her image appears on pendants, rosary charms, church walls, etc..
I think I'll use more of the panel pieces in an upcoming Guatemalan inspired piece I have in mind.
Alas. So many ideas, so little time.
Here's a piece that I just finished, done completely with hand stitching. I decided to let myself keep adding to it for as long as I had the energy, so it's a bit busy, but I like it anyway.
