Start with a layered textured background, then embellish nine small vases with hand-dyed indigo fabrics, threads and beads.

This small wall quilt features a soft neutral, hand-dyed wool background with nine small vases filled with flowers.

For homework you will prepare a layered and textured background.in class we will embellish the small vases incorporating hand-dyed indigo fabrics, threads and beads. We will then fill each vase with textural stems and leaves. Then using my newest techniques we will create dimensional flowers using many different techniques.
