Fine Art


 Can you guess what I'm making???
 Ever since I saw this pattern for sale, I had to have a piece of fine art...The directions are clear.  The quilt is sewn together with 1 1/2" strips and the cutting is very labor intensive.  It took me a week to cut this out.  It is assembled in a paint by number style.  I have found it handy to have labels which I have subcut and have labeled everything as the colors are so similar and the sizes are so close...-**
++-+8**I have a little helper this morning...

For your fabric, I did find some pieces at my local quilt store, however I had to order online for the remainder...Fat Quarter Shop was wonderful to work with.  I asked them to label the colors so that I could continue to label them once they are cut out...I found some boxes and I am using the lids to keep things somewhat contained and in order...wish me luck!!!

So are you really going to do a Mona Lisa out of fabric? Crazy!
I do wish you luck. It's like cross-stitching with fabric.

This looks like such a HUGE challenge. Can't wait to see how it comes along!
