Vincent van Gogh

Work in Progress
The studio journal class of SharonB is yielding fruit.
I am applying a few stitches of Tast2012 for this little picture
 which was meant to be an appliqued small quilt, really small
and you recognize probably that it is Vincent Van Gogh
It is a detail of the small piece which measures 21 x 14 cm.




I defined the threads which I wanted to use but it was in 2011
 and I changed my mind which can happen with me from one day to the next. But here one year passed...

.... and the fabrics were chosen. It is in my studio journal and reminds me
of my first online class.
 The move of the air can be seen and also Vincents juniper in the landscape.
I stitched the move of the air - the wind - with detached chain stitches, Tast 2012 Week 7, quite different from my first thoughts one year ago.
The juniper disappeared but many more stitches will appear in the course of time.
I used also buttonhole and fly stitches.


Once more the work in progress.
The original is very much lighter.
