I'm looking for a way to portray tree leaves using green mottledfabric. I've got some ideas but there are probably ways of doing it than what I can think of.
Thanks for reading this, and hope some of you can help me out. peel |
Do you mean you are looking for block patterns of leaves? Silver Linings originals has some beautiful free PP patterns.
Here is a link for you to download http://www.silverliningsoriginals.com/qc/leaves.html |
Are you appliquing or piecing them?
|
I like to make "split" leaves using two different fabrics. It can really add depth. (I hope this is what you were asking.)

Here are some leaves I have done.

Pam, your appliques area beautiful.

Thanks Gramma, it is what I do! Been sidetracked with traditional quilting, but going to get back to it soon! The one with the corn is my first art quilt, no going back, for long, anyway.
|
They are beautiful. Have you entered them in to any show?
|
No, not good enough for that, yet...
|
You may want to reconsider, I think they are show worthy!
