Art Quilt

This is my first attempt at art quilting, and as I'm not a purist I have glued the pieces instead of sewing them on. It looks like I may need to invest in a sewing machine, one of those latest ones that allow you to do amazing embroidery styles.

Last week I showed you my digital collage where I had manipulated photos and added various layers (background and vector based elements) using Photoshop.

So here is one quilt, the other one to follow. The digital collage image was colour printed onto cotton twill. The quilt is made up of scraps of red fabric, lace, embroidered embellishments, ribbon and of course a little bit of bling (I couldn't help myself).
