Welcome!

Thank you for visiting artful embellishments. This is the third year for this blog and I am so happy to keep publishing. I started in 2011 and began with a quilt of the week, this lead to the leaf of the week for my newly designed paper tree that is located on the wall of my garage in 2012.......2013 is going to bring a lot of excitement and positive change. As a personal challenge for 2013, I plan on designing a artist trading card each week to be featured on the blog.
With so many interests, there will be quilting, art quilting, leaves (and more leaves), as well as experiments in thermofax screen printing, fabric dying, and tons of DIY recycle projects. I may even enter that altered fashion scene. To a happy and healthy 2013, may we all find happiness in those things we create....thank you for stoping by artful embellishments.

Week 45 Full Moon

Week 45 Journal Quilt was made after I watched an amazing full moon rise over northern michigan. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera, all I have is the memory. I used pieced applique to make this quilt. Different types of fabric were used to construct the quilt square. The moon was made of a pale yellow satin. The tree was made from a tree bark type fabric that I found at one of the local quilting stores. The owl was made from an upholstery scrap. He was thread painted for detail.
