Our theme for this was Favorite Places! I picked a sea turtles favorite place.
I did not get completely finished before time ran out, but wanted to show it so far anyway. Now comes the beading and all the little extras, but here it is for now!

"Hidden Treasures" art quilt challenge!
This is the piece that I did for an online group that I belong too. Our first piece was to be based on the theme "Hidden Treasures". We were to interpret this in any way we wanted. I chose the sea turtle as my main subject. I fused pieces of green to create the turtle and stuffed the shell from the back to make it stand out. I did the changing moons to show the eggs as they hatched and the wondrous turtle emerge. I wanted to do it as a film like in high speed motion, that is why the reels are above and real 35mm film running between them. I crocheted the border piece and birthed the whole piece to have it stand out. I hope you like it!
Can`t wait to find out what our next challenge subject is.

A new Challenge!
I am so excited! I belong to a group on Yahoo, that teaches classes in quilting.
This group does traditional and non traditional. Lots of great classes, lots of great teachers.
ANYWAY, the lady that started this group, decided we needed to do art quilt challenges!
She posted if anyone was interested, and within less then 24 hours, 20 ladies had signed up!! I was one of those lucky few.
The ideas are in, and am just waiting to find out what our theme is. Diane numbered all the choices, and I picked the number. So as soon as Diane gets my email with the number in, we will all find out what our first challenge is.
The only restrictions are, it must be 75% fabric. That is IT!!
We are going to do one challenge every four months. So be ready for some great art!
We will have a blog with our work on it, and I will post that as soon as Shirley gets it up and running.
So wish me good luck in my Adventure in Art Quilts!!
