CHALLENGE!
Time for PLAY!
I've been thinking about
PORTRAITS....
Have you seen Katherine Roumanoff's portraits?
really really fun...and inspiring!
Kathy's Header has a quilt she did in Self portraits, here
her post about this project here
I've Never done a portrait in fabric...
Want to experiment along with me?
style wise, Anything goes
Let's do a portrait of ourselves in fabric,
16" X 20"
and have a little showcase of them all...
This is a new experience for me,
let's try something NEW together!!
Leave me a comment if you want to play along...
if enough wanna play,
perhaps I put up a little blog
where we can all show our process and learn from each other...
if you want to contribute a tutorial of a portrait you have done, let me know
would love some guests bloggers on this topic...
I will post about the progress of mine.

Okay, I'm signed in now and have my preliminary sketch done. This is going to be fun!
I have to decide on a photo that will work with this. I will probably use photoshop and play with the photo. I use a projector to enlarge designs and it is also a great way to make things more simplistic and primitive.

I found I could posterize a photo in Corel, so that may be helpful. I'm looking forward to this!
I did one a while back, you can find it at...

I wanted to see how close I could get without using anything but fabric and thread. I hope to try this again sometime and take it a little further
I would love to play too...I do pet portraits mostly, but I have done people too....this sounds like fun! Melinda
Great job! I became your follower too.
