New pixelated quilt project

My tiger quilt took hours and hours to produce, but the overall effect was successful and this gave me the motivation to have another go. This time I wanted to produce a smaller picture that would be easier for someone to accommodate on there wall. In order to make a smaller finished piece successfully still represent the image I made my squares smaller. Each square is just quarter of an inch. Too small to sew together obviously, so they are fused. I have marked the fabric I am bonding them to, so that I keep them in the correct location. I think this project is going to be another long one!



Etsy Shop Open!

I've just set up a shop on Etsy called 'QuiltsDeb': 
https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/QuiltsDeb?ref=search_shop_redirect

On the shop at the moment are my bags like the one below and more quilts.

I will update it in a few weeks with more of my quilts.

Textiles bags

I've started producing fabric handbags using whatever funky fabric I can find. Here are a few examples...



Fishes Quilt

The last few months have been busy with marathon training and job applications which hasn't left much time for my art, so this piece has taken a long time to complete.
I was experimenting with some shot tulle to give the fishes a shine. Also did a lot more quilting to the background than I have done before. Typically for me I am not completely happy with the result, so I'll have a go at some fishes another time.
