Quilt Card

This little quilt card was inspired by Cindy Grisdela's beautiful art quilts.  I started with some earthy batiks and finished it off with hand dyed solids. I added a few french knots and a button to make it my own. I like the teeny tiny red square under the button.

This was my mother-in-law Margie's Mother's Day card.  I hope you don't mind that I shared your card Margie.

Just like I save bits of paper...I save bits of fabric.                                                                                                                                                           

I spent an afternoon a while back sewing together bits of batiks....all ready for framing in solids and a little embellishments.  Margie's Mother's Day card started from one of these little blocks.  

 

Can't wait to start playing with them again!  I have been collecting some nice hand dyed solids to work with.
