Gail’s Wild Sunflowers


I’m a big fan of Andrea Brokenshire.  I was fortunate to take a week long class with
 her last year in Schulenberg Texas.   This is the 2nd quilt I have completed using
her method of painting on silk charmeuse with a freezer paper pattern.  The original
photo was taken by our own Teresa Schlabach.   Pro Chem transparent textile paints
on silk charmeuse.  I hope to do more of these.

  3. What a wonderful "Wild" quilt! I am always drawn to watercolor paintings and you have achieved that affect perfectly! Well done with the quilting too. It gives the different components the right texture.
