Springtime


Okay, so I'm late, and it's not bound yet, but it's done and quilted. This was an experiment using Sharpie pens and alcohol. I drew in some designs with colored Sharpies, then used alcohol - either sprayed on or dripped on. On some layers, I sprinkled salt, which drew the color out of those spots. It's totally colorfast when it dries. Learned that yellow and orange sharpies don't do very well. Freemotion quilted with rayon threads. Size is 8.5x11" and I'd appreciate some suggestions on binding. - Marilyn

  1. Hi Marilyn,
    I love your rainbow flower garden...it's very whimsical. And I see you had fun drawing with your quilting lines. Have you considered a touch of sparkle with a few beads or crystals?
