This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Art Quilting: Pictorial Techniques »

Instructions

After taking Wendy's class, I decided to give it a try on my own with this special photo taken by my daughter of my husband and I. We were in Brown County Indiana on Labor Day of 2011.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Unisex

Style: Traditional, Outdoorsy, Classic, Romantic


Materials

Cotton and Batik

What was your inspiration?

My inspiration was spured on by Wendy's class. She is a great instructor and makes you feel comfortable in trying a new process. This photo is one of my very favorite shots and it means a lot to me as my daughter "caught" the moment without us knowing it.

What are you most proud of?

I was able to complete the project and experience the joy of having this pictorial quilt to hang where I can see it everyday.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Believe in yourself and the process. Take Wendy's course and go back to refresh and reaffirm the process as you go.
