Sue M's #4, Purple Blue and Orange

I haven't quite finished my piece, just need to stitch the binding down but have taken a photo of the piece for the reveal. I will sit and stitch tonight while the football is on television.

My piece was inspired by the fish in Susan Carlson's book Free Style Applique. I didn't follow her applique techniques though.  It measures approx 10 x 12 inches.

As you can see the fish is made in various orange fabrics and the background is purple and blue. The seaweed is painted vliesofix.

WOW Margaret has asked me to post her last 3 challenges. I am impressed.  I have been doing some catchup so the pictures for the black and white and celebration challenges are here as well as the Celtic challenge. I made a quilt for a graduation gift and the school colours happened to fit the challenge, there is more black and red than white but I like it.  The celebration one is my take on a trip my children took me on last summer to celebrate my birthday when they arranged a fireworks display by the lake we were at. I call the Celtic collage spirits in the clouds and it reflects some things I have seen in my travels as well as my own feelings about that time in history. Hope you all enjoy them.Margaret Well done Margaret Delia
