Today I played with some fragments that seemed happy together. A little fiber collage series, perhaps. But I feel a little stuck now. My sweetie put an old necktie in the discard pile, and it sat around for awhile until I decided to put in my stash because I love the birds on that black background (below). Then he decided he might wear it again, at just about the time I decided those birds would be perfect additions to my collages.
What would YOU do?! He IS retired now .....

Since I first looked at the book
Quilting: Line + Color by Yoshiko Jinzenji I have been itching to try some of the beautiful and simple designs - reserved bursts of color on white cotton.
This is my initial attempt at the "fracture" line on white made by reverse applique. Another piece of white fabric to be laid over this, basted over the red line, and cut to reveal the color. A bit challenging.
