Pretty Poison

Pretty Poison - Pretty Poison was made in response to a SAQA SC/GA Regional Challenge. A 12" square of hand dyed fabric was provided and the challenge was to use the fabric to create a 12" square quilt. I used the fabric to create the body of the Jellyfish and fused it to the background fabric. I then used tulle to create a "jelly-like" sac around the bodies and Angelina to create an iridescent shine. Ricky Tims' Razzle Dazzle thread was couched on to create the swimming tentacles. This was a fun challenge. I always wanted to make a jellyfish quilt. I think there is a larger one in my future.
