Patchwork Art


I am guesting with the wonderful ladies of DollyLane, a custom boutique group! They are having a "Patchworks of Art" launch right now thru June 22nd...and I just had to participate!

I am quite pleased with this one...it is so girly, not that I've ever made anything but "girly". This one is a lot fun...with rouching and ric rac here and there... patchwork squares (and rectangles) of all different sizes...vibrant colors...a beautiful HILCO fabric print...you get the picture.
I used all the mediums I love to create this art piece----a Patchwork of Art! See the eBay listing here.
