I've been thinking of a project in whites but the snow finally inspired me to start it. So far I have 25 small squares sewn onto a fabric foundation. I purposefully used different shades and textures, and included fringed edges. For me it was an exercise in accepting, possibly embracing, imperfection, and becoming more comfortable with raw edges. I also thought that working with whites would be soothing. Well, I was wrong about that. Maybe I will change my mind when embellishing, but I think I prefer working with strong colors and contrasts.

Well, it's working for me! I like it! All of my wall art pieces and art quilts have rough raw edges. I love the look!
Thanks! I appreciate the encouragement.
I think white on white will be very beautiful-- and snow can certainly be inspiring to look at--
Deb! I love the white on white and I love the raw edges- go with it and I bet that you will be very pleased!! Al of the texture is wonderful!!!
I'm still working on it. I'm in the process of selecting the embellishments.
It's a happy piece to look at. We're all different shades (inside and out) but we all go so well together. I think I'm tap dancing on sappy with that... :)
