now it looks different

It started out like this.
After the base was stitched down and the basting removed, I added cutouts from a variety of commercial fabrics, some dyed with coffee, bits of old lace and trim, some buttons.

It has a lovely muted look to it. I can see it in several different settings like Victorian or Early American or even modern.

Now THIS looks like fun! The blues feel so nice to look at right now- something cool when it's so hot.
