Originally this was going to be done in blues...lol..but I changed to browns. This is the 2nd in my what is that series and is 15x18.5", I was going to do them all 12" but decided to mix up the sizes for a more interesting quilt after the 12 months.
I held this item in front of me at an angle and took a picture, converted it to black and white and then drew it. I then used fusible webbing to make the various shapes, fused and then sewed the edges. Unfortunately I am out of batting so this will be added to the rapidly growing piles of things to quilt!
So what is that? :-D
This is a great example of forced perspective and your use of browns was wise. I believe this is a corkscrew!
ReplyDeleteI was waiting for somebody to guess that, but sorry, it isn't a corkscrew! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt could be a phone cord...or a drill bit?? Nice job whatever it is!
ReplyDeletethanks Karen, and nice try but sorry :-)
ReplyDeletewell, it has to be small enough to fit in your hand so it could be curling ribbon? Nice job!
ReplyDeletewellll, if it isn't curling ribbon, how about a slinky or spring?
ReplyDeleteKathy great use of browns. You really did this challenge justice with this great piece.
ReplyDeleteKathy, i never would have guessed what this was.
ReplyDeleteGreat use of fabric in a clever piece.
This is so much fun, guessing your subject each month :) I never in a million years would have guessed this one, but it's a super interpretation for it! Nice perspective...

Hi Kathy - Somehow I missed finding out what this represents! I think your use of the various values of tans/browns is very effective. Whatever it is, its shape is well-defined and interesting.
ReplyDeleteHi Cathy, I like your piece, especially the graphic feel with the higher contrast of the black next to the light color. so...what is it then?

PS...good idea to have a variety of sizes, it will be much more interesting and unusual.
