Fall Leaves

This panel was done from an experiment using bleach and black cloth. The leaves were laid on the black fabric and sprayed with bleach, Every black fabric comes out a different color. In this case the result was a rusty orange. I then appliqued some leaves on top of the silhouette. 

This is a detail of the quilt showing the beading of the leaves. Some of the leaves were done with Swarovrski crystals and some were done with hand beading. The quilt was donated to the International Aphasia Movement.
