For the background I used torn strips of fabric placed at random over and next to each other. With my Cameo Silhouette I cut the text out of freezer paper. There is a learning curve with this cutter, I have to say. Have to practise a lot more to get the hang of this machine. The text was placed on top of the fabric, ironed and painted. The trees I cut out of pounded fabric. Quilting was done using a simple design.
As it is a Friday today I am posting this to Nina-Marie's Off the Wall Friday's.

I like this piece very much, Wil -- especially the pieced background and the trees. You've captured the blue dawns of this season beautifully.
Mooi!
I love your process. The words are well placed, and the foreground trees add depth. I like!!

I like the color of the trees contrasted with the blues.
Wonderful piece, Wil! Has a felt sense of winter. Happy Holidays!
The text adds a lot to the piece, the tree silhouettes are well done
You certainly have captured the winter blues mood. The silver lettering is a nice touch.
