Finally, about a year past due, I finnished another baggo. For those who don't know, a baggo is a challenge in which people pack a gallon sized ziplock bag with fabrics & embellishments that they like, send them to a coordinater who sends back someone else's bag. You make something with the bag that you receive & it goes back to the person who put the bag together. The yahoo group, "Fiber Pirates" has some fantastic artists & I have received some great artwork from past baggos.
This is what I received:
Here's the finished piece. I added the cream colored background. (The blue dots are magnets temporarily holding it to the steel door.)
Close up # 1. The picture frame is 3D-only sewed down on the inner edge. Check out the gold loop trim on the edge of the quilt.
Close up # 2 I love this vase. It was the first thing that I did. A little trapunto (extra stuffing) helps the 3D look.
It seems that I'm not the only one who got behind on this project. Most of the other participants are not done. I can't wait to see what I'll get back.
