The yellow house is finally stitched. To see the previous posts about this project, click here and here. My objective was to paint on fabric with acrylics, add some chunks of patterned fabric, quilt it, then evaluate. The acrylics make the surface a little stiff, but it isn’t a problem. (Except that it tends to retain needle holes.) The stitching seems a little overbearing in places, but really enhances the image in other areas, such as the sky. The stitching might be more in scale with a larger image... this is only about 9" X 12".
While this isn’t exactly a masterpiece, it worked out well enough that I want to do some more work along this line.Have a great weekend, everybody!

Wow, Loreen! I didn't know this was to become a quilt from the plein air painting you did! It looks fantastic!
I Love how this turned out. So cool to see the whole progression. Maybe this is the start of a whole series?
I love this technique....can not wait to see more!
I'm glad you showed the progression towards this little piece. It turned out very nice.
Gosh, I admire your work, Loreen! I probably should take a painting class one of these days -- you make it look effortless, although I know that there's tremendous talent behind these pieces. Thanks for sharing!
