My most recent aerial view is of the beach. For the sand I used a piece of rust dyed fabric, for the sea several blues. The breaking waves are made from thin strips of scrim stitched down with seed beads. Some time ago I had bought a set of buttons in the shape of shells and starfish. I cut off the shank and glued them down with E6000.
Voyage – A group of textiles artists drawn together from around the world who vary in both their experience and in the nature of expression of their art. Their work broadly encompasses the understanding of a quilt in its loosest form. We exist as a virtual group on the internet, posting our work on the blog and communicating via a group site to enable us to share our work and exhibit.
2017
We move forward from two successful exhibitions in 2016 in Prague and in the USA to the challenge of an exhibition in the Netherlands in the Autumn. We continue to work on A2 sized pieces in portrait format and will be producing four pieces over the year with the theme of 'Freedom'. An essential part of our art is working in series to a common format which does give us all a framework for our creative endeavours.
Lovely Will. A great and really quite realistic ariel view!

Of course, I love the colours and it does look very realistic, like flying in over a tropical island! The quilting adds a great deal to it,too.
