Cypress With Moss – Fiber Art Quilt -- Blogger's Quilt Festival

I discovered that you could have two entries in Amy’s Creative Side’s Blogger’s Quilt Festival.

With that in mind I decided to enter

“Cypress With Moss”

into the ‘wall hanging’ category.

I cut out the pieces from cotton fabric and fused them onto a cotton background. It measures 16”X20” and is heavily machine quilted.

I really like the artwork of Robin Whitfield and took a beginners watercolor class with her.

She gave me permission to translate her work into fiber art. So, from a picture of her watercolor painting “old cypress with spanish moss / Sky Lake WMA - Swiftown / September” on the right, I made this fiber art piece on the left that I call
“Cypress With Moss.”

I used “fast finished triangles” on the back so it is ready for mounting.

I finished my “Cypress With Moss” quilt last week.

I cut out the pieces from cotton fabric and fused them onto a cotton background. It measures 16”X20” and is heavily machine quilted.
