A Collaborative Project

I am intrigued by quilts. I love the combinations of color and with older pieces, I am fascinated by the accompanying story. A friend has been teaching me the art of quilting and this is most recent endeavor. 
I really enjoy selecting and putting together the fabrics and colors. I am being taught design ideas, assembling techniques and finish work as I move through the process. 
I had fun taking the eagle panel to the fabric store so that I could coordinate complementary materials.

I even found this cute star print for the back of the hanging. Off and on, over the months, we have gotten together a few times to work on this wall hanging. My friend did some of the more complex portions for me and, naturally, she guided me through the rest. Since learning to quilt has been a goal of mine, it's rewarding to dabble in this art and it was fun to make this eagle piece.  🦅
