new quilt

Gosh I wish my camera was better. This is my new quilt (just finished) I am calling it Stream of Consciousness. The hints of color are from fabric placed below the top layer (signifying subconscious) The detail shot shows some of the thread work and drawings I added with a fabric marker.
