SAQA MN quilt contiued

The background is complete so it is time to start working on the geese and the grasses. For the geese I used Tsukineko ink on a Quick Fuse fabric sheet. When writing with a pen on fabric, the fabric stretches a bit. The advantage of this fabric sheet is that it does not do that. In the picture the geese are not yet fused to the background.
I also prepared the grasses. Different colors of green with a layer of bondaweb.
Next step is to fuse everything to the background and start stitching. Stay tuned :-)

This is going to be a lovely piece, Wil --- and quite different from the abstracts I've witnessed of late. Looking forward to seeing more.
