New Timon
New Timon is a quilt of an image of my orange tabby Timon. It is all hand pieced using English Paper Piecing. It will be approximately 48" x 72"
2/24-
New Timon is making good progress

One section ready to be sewn together

My work area while taking the fabric and basting it to the paper foundations

This is while I was cutting the fabric to fit the colors in the image, I started it in 2002

This is the second quilt I've made of Timon using this technique...
Here is the first one, and the first one I ever made. I've learned so much more since then:
The new image is less abstract, his eyes are open, and is easier to tell it is a cat. My stitches are better, my colors were more planned out ahead of time. I am more organized as to how I am assembling it.

COOL! (I did a quilt for my cats, but it is "only" applique - the background is kind of "Arty.")
