The Dodge Honeybee comes up again..
Back in March, I posted about the camper we had when I was a kid. I remade the illustration into a little wall quilt as a Father's Day gift for my dad.
detail..
I forgot to measure but I think it's probably 14-16" on the long side. Lots of fusing, which I've only used a little bit before. Mostly fabrics and thread, some ink and a little bit of colored pencil. I managed to do this entire thing without making any major mistakes that had to be fixed! No melted tulle, no mis-fused bits. I'm so happy! Of course the back is a complete wreck but I'm not fussy about what sits against the wall. (The camper itself was drawn mostly from memory - I'm sure there are some pictures at my parents' house, but I didn't have any here, and googling only turned up two image results for the exterior, neither of which showed the front end.)
narwhals
Pink narwhals embroidered with various threads on dyed pink fabric, cotton batting, hand dyed backing, commercial binding; hand quilted. 12x10"
One of them is sparkly.
Laser gun
I was watching Star Trek TNG on Monday night, and I decided to sew a little laser gun.
lasers go BEW BEW BEW!!!
Lamb skulls, updated
I didn't think I was going to go in this direction with the lamb skulls, but I ended up squishing them onto a quilt.
The background fabric is green stuff from my last post. Binding didn't seem appropriate to finish the edges (and I am lazy), so I used two layers of overcast stitching instead. Finished size is 15x19.5". Cotton duck and muslin, cotton/poly thread, fabric marker, and graphite, poly batting.
There are a number of errors, certainly (I wasn't really going for perfect!) - but I still like it. I am sending it to someone (I think), and I hope he likes it too.
I was a bit too excited about finishing it to wait for it to dry completely after steaming it. You'll notice some dampness in the pictures 
I kind of love making giant-applique-image-in-the-center-of-a-quilt things.
