I took a thread painting class last month with Chris Eichner. She does incredible work! And has won all sorts of ribons and awards. OH MY!
I love it and have been collecting scraps for making landscapes with fabrics and threadpainting...... I just needed an excuse for MORE fabric! LOL.

I would like to learn both ways
as I also paint in oils, acrylics, water colors and pen and ink
I went to the National Quilt Show last week at Columbus, Ohio and thought it would be fun to learn

Nancy has had Natelie on a few of her shows. They showed their techniques, it was very interesting.
I have only made a couple landscape quilts, but they were a lot of fun :D:D:D

Update - I just did a search and found the title of the book that I used. It is Quilted Landscapes Machine Embellished Fabric Images by Joan Blalock. It was in Amazon.

I've never done one yet. Came close once--I did a seascape with a silouette of a ghostship on it. But that was when I was first learning to applique and it's a child type thing.
It just might be something I'd like to look into.
