Woven Green Fan
The motif that runs through the "H" quilt is the fan. After determining that one of my patches was too large, I decided to create a fan within a corner of it. This was really fun to do--and I like how it enriches the overall design of the quilt--so I expect some more will show up...

ReplyDeleteLove those fans!! I'm glad you're using them again. Hmmmm I just got two packages of metallic ribbon in various greens from Kreinik. Might have to try that. Thanks for sharing - I do enjoy it so (looking at your beautiful work.)
ReplyDeleteWay neat fan!
ReplyDeleteI linked over from Pat's blog to tell you the book- The Lost Mother- is up for grabs again - this time on my blog. Check it out if you're still interested & if it's still available.
Now to go look at more of your nice stitchery!
Beautiful fan ! it is a piece of art in itself.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun -- and what a great way to "fix" a too large block. I am in love with the progress on the "H".
ReplyDeleteYou create so many lovely gems within your art! I was thinking that this piece reminds me of an old Parcheesi board we had, then read that your recollection is of Chutes and Ladders!
