My recycled challenge is completed


“Spring Relfections”
17½ x 12

Blue chambray was the perfect fabric to bind my latest quilt. This one was a lot of fun to make. I wonder if the plastic mesh will hold up over time, or if it will become brittle and flake off. Parts of it are overlaid with nylon tulle, perhaps this will help.

I was able to get some better photos today. I am reminded again of the importance of good light and a steady hand or tripod.

Very nice. I especially like the way the focus layer is vertical and the background and quilting ore horizontal, yet are perfectly combined. Great!

Very good! I love the colors and think it's clever how you incorporated the different materials into a cohesive whole without making it looked forced. The quilting is great, too.

I love the way the quilting flows across the quilt, blending all the layers into one cohesive piece.

I like the way you made quite bright, different objects come to a whole, and softened it with the tulle!
