Next stage of challenge

I am now working on Nickie's fabric, that was inspired by the European Union. I have to quilt the fabric and think I will try to show the links between the different countries in my stitching. I just have to work out how I want to carry out the task.

I have finally passed my sample of fabric onto Debs (only a few days late). First of all I had fun dyeing lots of fabric with procion dyes to get the colour I wanted. I then used part of a design from the aboriginal rock art and made stencils in various sizes using freezer paper. The next step was to apply the design using discharge paste and/or markal paint sticks. I hope Debs has fun on the next step of the challenge and that she likes my inspirational picture.
