Lesson 5




Here is my Faces on Fabric Quilt after the painting in Lesson 5. When I finished painting her, I hated her so I decided that there had to be something that I could do the save the face. I tried to figure out what I disliked so much and it was the color of her skin. So I decided to paint her skin with a flesh tone paint that was included in the kit I bought from Terri (the instructor). Now I love her. She is wonderful. I can't believe I could actually paint something like this.


Just goes to show you that some time you just have to be creative and figure out a solution to the problem.

Faces Lesson Four Completed


I'm finally back to my Faces Quilt. I just completed Lesson 4. In lesson four we stitched down all the parts of the quilt and stitched the features on the face. So far I really like the little Faces Quilt. The next step is to add the paint. This part is rather scary for me. I think I'll do a few practice samples before I actually put paint on the face fabric. Wish me luck.

Here she is!!!!

She is fused and ready for the next step. I'm quite pleased with this little Faces on Fabric quilt. I'm hoping the shadows along the face and neck will be covered in the next step. I trying to decide if she needs another butterfly. One to the right of the face? I have some time before I must decide. Faces on Fabric is such a wonderful class. I'm loving the instructions and interaction with others in the class. This is my first on-line class. Her name is LisAnne. Don't know where I got the name but it fits her.
