Turning improv patchwork into this.....

Remember my post from last week where we exchanged fabric bundles and I made this sample in a log cabin style.


I was given blues and reds in this fabric stash but this fresh spring look just needed a chair.( I am just cleaning and sorting my art room and noticed  my most fav fabric collection colours : grey, orange, lime green and driftwood shades.)
The sample I stretched into the embroidery hoop and  free hand embroidered a lounge chair mimicking a window view.



This was my favourite style of improv pieces.


Now it framed as a mimi quilt or placemat.


( It still needs a good press)
