I just started landscape quilting after a class with Joyce Becker. I was tiring after three years, of making someone else's idea and following their way of making it. I began by streamlining patterns. That is, finding an easier way to accomplish the same result. The landscape quilting idea appealed to my need to bust out of my rut and create. In the class with Joyce, I learned some of the basics. There are so many ways and things to use in this method of quilting that I am thrilled to say, I am creating myself.

viens in leaves are not metallic green which will give a little shimmer in the light

Janice, since you asked. In nature, rocks would not be piled up against a tree like that, but in New England, rock walls are everywhere. I would extend the rock wall across
the picture to make it look like the tree is behind the wall. The fallen leaves can be in front of the wall just as easily. Don't you just love that with repositioning spray adhesive you can make changes however you want to? I do.
You have done a lovely job. My daughter is coming today to show me how to get pictures from my phone to my computer. I will have her upload my first (and so far only) landscape quilt that I just finished.

Hi Janice4. Goto Quilting Arts.com and order their mags. You will be so thrilled with the fabric art quilts and the tutorials by the artists. I have learned so much and it is so much fun learning thread scetching. Also go to Susan Bruebaker Knapp she has great art quilts and I learned so much from her. You can also get their mag at JoAnn Fabrics. Roz from Maine!!
