One of my challenges for 2010 is to reduce my stock of fabrics (before I go to Seattle). So my "lizard quilt" is the first project. It's almost finished. Every spare moment since januar 1, I used working on this quilt, sometimes early in the morning before I went to work. (I know we quiltpeople are addicted and crazy). I didn't use any pattern, only wanted to use as much of my batiks as possible.
You could say a new experience, that worked out very well. The lizards are sew on the machine. I used a technique I learned in a Workshop with Dijanna Cevaal a couple of years ago. You just use free quilting to go around the applications. Very simple, but I love this technique when I use batiks.
Good news: my stock is reduced with 4 yards and 1 fat quarter.

That really is terrific and when it does finally go to live at Tale's house, I'm sure he will adore it. Check out a technique called: McTavishing. Interesting along the edges.

Well, I was wrong. It isn't McTavishing I was thinking of. I will keep trying to figure out what I was remembering. Your lizards are really great!
