No, it’s not done, nor will it be in five days. But I made significant progress. I painted it, layered the batting and backing and did a great deal of quilting. Then yesterday, I added the chicken prince. Paul and I spent some time with markers, going over the black lines.
I think it really pops now. But I need to do some more hand quilting. I want to add a frame, then add more batting and a new back. I will then machine quilt it, and finally add beads. It may be a 2013 ufo.

What fun! The wing fabric is PERFECT!
Thanks. It is a cordoroy shirt that I bought at a thrift store or a garage sale many years ago. It is one that I just take a little bit at time to use because I love it so much and I know I’ll never find it again.
A really great piece of textile art. Progress is good, at least the challenge has made you work on the piece again.
Thank you. I am really excited to get back to it actually but I have a couple of pieces with deadlines that I have to complete. If I don’t have it done by next year it will go on the list again. I like the way the list disciplines me to work on things that I thought were dead ends and bring them back into the center of my work. Thanks for stopping by.
