July's Color Palette Challenge was a picture by Picasso. no pressure....hahahahaha
I started several times and couldn't get an idea to gel. i kept thinking of duplicating the photo. yeah, right! LOL
So, here i am...down to the wire and it's time to do SOMETHING....even if it is wrong.
Here is our photo....thanks, Vicki ....
Here's my take on it....just look from far away and squint....it'll pass. LOL
I'll give you a closer look if you don't look too close.
A couple hours work and i made the deadline.
I cut my colors into itsy bitty pieces and put some steam a seam II on the background fabric....dropped the colored bits onto it....put more steam a seam and a black net over all and ironed it all down. i've always wanted to try this method and granted this time was not my finest moment....but i'll live with it. may have to try this again one day.
Here's hoping i get a good idea quickly for next month's challenge. thanks to Judy Laquidara at www.patchworktimes.com for organizing these challenges.

what an interesting piece, I would have never thought to do that.
ReplyDeleteI think the colors match great
Wonderful method! Worked great in this piece. Netting - a good idea to hold everything in place.
ReplyDeleteI like it! What a fun concept!
