Happy New Year to All

Happy New Year, everyone. I am going to try to make 2010 a productive art year so here is my 1st project for the year. I am really just beginning but thought if I posted a photo I will be more likely to complete it.

It is a 13" x 19" painted whole cloth and I am using a pattern from Judy Coates Perez that she so generously gave to me last week. It is a lot harder than she made it look in her Video "Whole Cloth Painted Quilts" but I will press on and see if I don't get better as I go.

I have signed up for a couple of challenges on the 3CS blog and forum but will not commit to anything else until I get some things completed. I have several quilts ready to be quilted but that is not where I wanted to start so I have put them on the back burner.

I hope everyone else has a healthy, happy and productive 2010.

See ya soon.
Brigitte

Brigitte, it looks like you are off to a great start. You need to remember learning any skill takes lots of practice. the more you do it the easier it will get, because you will learn so much just by the mere act of putting paint to cloth and experience the results of each brush stroke.

If you love doing it, you will find yourself spending the hours it takes to become skilled with it. Enjoy the process.

It's looking good. Don't lose sight of the journey being as important as the arrival.
Enjoy the process.
