Restoration Banner

 

The beginning of a series banner.

A long time ago friends gifted me with a piece of an old tattered quilt.  It's lived in a dresser drawer until now, when I used it in a banner for a Restoration series.  It's the piece on the top.

That was the first week of four.  Week two had a few more strips, and week three a new quilt piece with little squares.

Week four, above, had little surface pieces added to make the new piece like the old one.  Kind of.  I embroidered lace snowflakes for more antique-y effect.

And now, it's a new day and I need to get it out of my car and deconstruct it.  Maybe tomorrow for that.
