I decided to give the moon a rest while I decided on the quilting.
Today's "fun" is the barn.
I think what attracted me to this is the fluid nature of both the snow and the lines of the barn. Very few straight edges. I can't help but think OLD when I look at this.
After drawing it out to the size I want, I cut it out and auditioned in on the raw fabric.
Now I'm thinking I will have to abandon this fabric for this piece. There are too many distracting lines. These were caused by the permanent wrinkles in the plastic sheet I put over my work table.. I won't throw the cloth out as there will be a use for it, but I either have to repaint this background or change the background all together.
Sigh!
More decisions.
2:30 PM - NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER SURRENDER! ( from my favourite movie EVER!)
I went back and flipped the background fabric, then cut out the barn cartoon from the intended fabric.
THIS I can work with!
I love the implied roofs!
Sigh!
