This is from the on-line class for the Irish landscape....only I did a view from the Blue Ridge Parkway. A very easy way to create a landscape, just by using strips, a lot of stitches, and some yarn/fibers. Selecting the right color and value took all the time. The strips are sewn to a foundation and then stitched some more.
I have been down with a stomach virus and didn't get much done yesterday. I picked out the border fabric this morning and hope to get it added today. The border is added in a different way--as a whole piece rather than in strips. Will see how I like doing borders that way. It could be a good way to finish off the art quilts.
I love the way the hills fade into the distance and using yarn fibres is a neat way to add shape. I'll be interested in seeing how you do the borders. Keep us posted.
