(self)portrait

A couple of days ago I showed here the first try of a (self)portrait. It evolved into this after some tweaking and tips from Pamela. Size is 23"x38". I had so much fun making this that I worked on it till it was completed. For the class it was sufficient to have the design glued. Techniques used for this piece were free style cutting, raw edge applique and free motion quilting.
The pictures here show some detail of the quilting:


If you want to work outside your box and have a lot of fun, I advice you to take this class. On this link you can find more info: http://www.quilterskeeplearning.com/classes.html

(self)portrait

For this week's lesson the exercise is to make a selfportrait. This picture is my first attempt to it. I leave it up to you whether it is a portrait or a selfportrait :-). As with all Pamela's lessons all material is cut free hand without any templates. At the moment it is attached with only glue. Pamela still has to give her critique before I can continue working on it.
