Blue Moose

I am working in a class taught by Pamela Allen.  One of our assignments was to do a monochromatic piece.  I chose blue, my favorite color. I call it Blue Moose. It was made from bits of fabric left from other projects the center mountain was a pieced triangle lft over from an indigo roman strip quilt I made a few years back.  It is raw edge applique, the applique and the quilting done by hand with embroidery floss.Rosemary Hopkins

  1. This is a wonderful piece, with a primitive feel. Your use of "leftover" pieces gives it more charm, and it is a delightful composition. Great fabrics!

  5. Ah, far more hand-stitching than I would ever do, but it really works to hold it all together visually. I like the use of the same fabric in the mountain and in one of the trees.
