This week's inspiration comes to us from Patricia Caldwell. This is how her creative mind works with leftovers! It's made with dyed fabrics, fibers, cheese clothe, tulle, glass beads and drift wood gathered on the Oregon coast. The drift wood was washed, dried and then sprayed with water based polyurethane. Hand stitched with quilting thread, embroidery thread, dyed yarns and machine quilted. Here are some detail shots so you can see all of the beautiful hand stitching and embellishments.
For sharing, Patricia received a 20% coupon for the shop that's good for 3 months! If you have made anything with my hand dyed fabric I hope you will consider sharing it in the Customer Gallery. The only rule is that projects have to be complete. It doesn't have to be made totally from hand dyed fabric, just include a recognizable amount.

Thanks for sharing Vicki. I can never get rid of any scraps of your dyed fabrics and it is so fun to come up with something to use them with!
