Shady Lady

26.75 x 27.25 inches

Shady Lady is based on an original photograph taken in my shade garden this summer. After enlarging the photo, I applied it to a single piece of black fabric and cut away the white portions. After cutting, it was fused to the white fabric and straight stitch machine quilted over the black areas.
