called "RUSTY FAIRY" ... here's the link...http://suzstuff.blogspot.com/2008/02/rusty-fairy-art-quilt-2008.html
I took an on-line class from Ellen Lindner call "Instant Art Quilts" ....
http://tinyurl.com/2fr6ds
...this was a super fun class & Ellen is a great on-line teacher !!! I highly recommend this class for anyone who wants instant gratification with an art piece...I love it !!!!
here are my results....
I started with a not so great piece of my handpainted art cloth...but with Ellen's fantastic technique it has turned into fab-u-lious wall art !!!
I made the larger art quilt first & with the left over scraps made the second smaller quilt....
this is the first Instant Art Quilt...
this is the not so great painted cloth...
and than I made another one...and than another small one with the left over scraps...it reminds me of when I was a kid & my little sister & I had to wear the same outfits...big sister & little sister..LOL...
I will most likely add some surface embellishment to the 2 smaller art quilts...I do like the glitz !!!!!
sorry if the pictures are not in order...BUT I just cannot figure this blogger thing out...it's very frustrating for me.... I'd rather be making art quilts...vbg...
and this is the not very pretty painted muslin...........................................

Sneaking in to let you know.... you won an art bag purse from over on my give away at http://dejablu503.livejournal.com/, could you email me your shipping info? dejablu503@yahoo.com
What a wonderful way to salvage something you thought wasn't so great at first.
WOW!!! I love them!!!! I'm taking her color class first and then will do this class. I love them!!!
Good job.
Oh Suz, I think that even the pieces you say are 'not so great' are still fabulous and yet you have managed to make them look even better. This sounds like a really good class to take - I'm going to follow the link.
Great quilts, so vibrant. I love them.
These are really cool!
