Sue M #9 Challenge Black and White




For once I have finished my challenge on time. I started off thinking of Zentangles and this led to my final design.

It is inspired by one of the pieces my youngest daughter made in her final year of high school.

I've added a picture of the actual statue below. This piece, along with a few others are now residing in our garden. Quite a talking point amongst visitors when the see them for the first time.


I have used a variety of black & white fabrics to create the torso highlighted with black sating stitching.

The quilt measures 19 x 14.5" or 48 x 37 cm

  1. Very cool idea!! I love the sculpture too. I just have to bind my challenge piece. I am off work tomorrow, so plan on doing some hand sewing on a few projects. I will post tomorrow for sure.

  2. Well done. It must have been difficult to find just the right black and white fabrics to execute this piece.

  3. Dolores, I collected Black and white fabrics last year and made 2 or 3 quilts, those used here are some of the off cuts.
